edit -> vote ?

sometimes when i edit my posts in the quick edit box (without going "advanced"), the save, go advanced and/or cancel buttons have the wrong texts on them; most frequently the save button says vote now
the functionality is intact, just the text of the buttons change

i'm not sure in which scenario this occurs, it seems to come and go rather erratically

using safari
 
That's real weird. I feel like I've heard this mentioned once before.

Can anyone recreate it?

Yeah, but none of you believed me..... In the end I was just ignored :'(

When you edit one of your own posts using quick edit. There is no option to save, you have to click the "vote now" button to save your changes. Its not obviously clear that this is what you should do, and your not actually voting for anything anyway.
 
this is a test of editing vote bug

edit: i see the save button

edit edit: it saves fine

edit edit edit: using standard editor it seems ok

edit edit edit edit: using simple editor, seems ok as well.

edit edit edit edit edit: im using FF 3.6
 
yes, they all work as expected (or as not expected from the text)

and like i said before, it varies what each button says, tho' "vote now" is a popular one for the first button

and it's intermittent

i'm now getting "vote now", "save", "go advanced", when editing this post
 
Can confirm this occurs. Has only happened when posting from my phone so far. Happens completely at random.
