Adding categories doesn't work from the sidebar

[agilbert]

(This is on the latest checkout of the 1.4 branch of asandbox.)

Following these steps:

1. Create a new blog post or edit an existing one
2. Click the "Choose Categories" dropdown
3. Choose the "+ New Category" option
4. Add a category name
5. Press "return"

I got this:

I went the same steps again, but instead of pressing return I clicked the "+ Add" button. Seems to have worked this time...

But then I refreshed. Now the category I just added doesn't exist on the post or even as an option in the dropdown.

The only way I was able to add categories to my posts was by first going to the "Edit categories" page.

I addressed part of this, saving new categories works however the enter button can not be used. John can you address this.

Rick, can you update your 1.4 sandbox and confirm that this is working then close this ticket?

Thanks

Just had to expand upon Tom's multiselect JS to get this going

			container.find('.add-add').click(function() {
				doSaveAdd();
			});
			container.find('.add-text').keypress(function(event){
				if (event.keyCode == '13') {
					event.preventDefault(); 									
					doSaveAdd();					
				};
			});
			function doSaveAdd()
			{
				container.find('.add').hide();
				var addText = container.find('.add-text');
				var v = addText.val();
				addText.val('');
				var ev = aHtmlEscape(v);
				if (v.length && (!containsLabel(v)))
				{
					container.append("<input type='checkbox' name='" + addName + "' value='" + ev + "' style='display: none' checked />"); 
					var remover = $(liHtml(v, options));
					remover.click(function() {
						// Must use filter, can't have nasty characters in a selector
						container.find('input[type=checkbox]').filter(function() { $(this).val() === ev }).remove();
						$(this).remove();
						onChange();
						return false;
					});
					container.find('ul').append(remover);
					remover.show();
					onChange();
				}
				return false;				
			}
