Cannot Save to User Namespace
(moved from incorrect location at Help:Books discussion Envelopenomia (talk) 19:28, 8 October 2011 (UTC))

When creating a book, I would like to save to my user namespace. The option bullet is there, above the Book: option, but the text field to enter a name for the location is grayed out. I cannot change focus to the field or enter any text. When I select the public Books: bullet, the location text input field is available, and upon entering text, the save button becomes active. Am I missing something to be able to save the book to my User space? It seems like the public option would be more restricted... I couldn't find anything in the Help section, any advice is appreciated, and thanks! Envelopenomia (talk) 19:04, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
 * More info: Using IE version 7, Mozilla Firefox 3.6.23, and Opera 11.50. Found that I could add a name before adding any pages, but could not once I had any pages in the list. Looks like a bug, possibly, (or maybe a feature/aspect I missed in the help section); I'll try creating a book that I first save and see if that works.

 * More notable info: Could not, after deleting all pages, enter a location. Can only do it if I start the creator, then enter the name. Clearing the book also does not work. I have to enter it right from the beginning, or the text input field is grayed out. Once I do that, I still don't get the Save button active. I have to add at least one article, and then use the Back option in my browser (going forward or jumping to the Book Creator will wipe out my name, and the text field will again be greyed out), which will leave the name intact, though now grayed out even when the option is highlighted. Once I've done that, the Save button is active. I can then save, although I can't tell if it actually is saving to anything - the link to the location is still empty. :/ Envelopenomia (talk) 19:19, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
 * The location I attempt to access is in the format User:Myusername/Books/BookLocationName, per the help guidelines. Nothing there, and nothing indexed for the Myusername/Books/ prefix, either. Envelopenomia (talk) 19:28, 8 October 2011 (UTC)

Ah, looks like I can't save to any space. When I tried saving a test to the Books: space, I got the following error readout:

This is from the same browser I am adding this message from - it's not an authentication timeout. Envelopenomia (talk) 19:38, 8 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Filed as bug 31821. – Adrignola talk 14:19, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I fixed the JavaScript (bug 31821) that prevented editing the input field. The problem with the UsageException (badtoken: Invalid token) seems unrelated and was previously reported as bug 31613. --Ckepper (talk) 11:14, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

Received the UsageException error today. Noticed it was marked "resolved fixed" in bugzilla and reopened it. Powered by the Human Spirit 11:40, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
