Description NROB 2007-05-09 04:49:01 UTC 
Version:           3.5.5 (using KDE 3.5.5, Debian Package 4:3.5.5a.dfsg.1-5 (4.0))
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.17.11-dvb

The javascript 'window.prompt' dialog will not accept an empty string. Specifically the 'OK' button remains disabled until some non-whitespace character is entered. This causes problems if e.g., the dialog is used to edit some data item, or submit a null password.

As the 'Cancel' button returns null rather than '' it would still be distinguishable from the 'OK' action with an empty string.

By contrast, firefox is happy to return an empty string.
