Hi Dirk,

Thanks a lot for your quick response. I have created a patch for the above
mentioned bug (ID - 0001237). Here how it works. First it will indicate the
required fields (using a red star). On submission with a missing field the
values that user already filled will be there in the form and the missing
field will be turn in to red :-) . Can you please tell me how to upload the
patch so someone can review it ?


@ Buddhika - Nice to meet you too.You guys are doing a great job with the
FOSS user magazine . keep up the good work..see you around.
