[bug] Able to clear AutoComplete when it is disabled in Edge

[Gerard]

I've managed to recreate this bug in the Dojo.

http://dojo.telerik.com/EPOWex

 

The problem is only occurring in Edge (Chrome and IE are working correctly). 

After you select a value from the AutoComplete and set it to enable(false). Notice that in Edge you can still select the text in the widget. Simply then press the del-key and the value is removed...

Hello Gerard,

Thank you for the code sample provided.

I have tested this with Edge 38 and IE 11 and I did not manage to delete the value from the AutoComplete. I have recorded a short screencast, which demonstrates the behavior on my end. May I ask you to review it and provide additional clarifications in case I am missing something? Also, can you specify what versions of the browsers are you using?

I am looking forward to your reply.

Hi Dimitar,

I found the difference.
When I select the text, I click and drag the mouse from right to left (maybe left to right also works :-) ). Notice when you do this, the text while dragging is turning blue, but when I release the mouse-button it turns to light-grey. In your screencast it says blue...

I've attached a gif showing how this works...

 

I'm using here:
Microsoft Edge 40.15063.0.0
Microsoft EdgeHTML 15.15063

Hello Gerard,

Based on the provided information I have managed to reproduce the bug with the exact version of MS Edge(40).

I have investigated the issue further, and I can confirm that it is not related to the Kendo UI Autocomplete widget. The bug is originating from the browser, as you can perform the same test on the following Dojo with a simple disabled input element.

Also, the bug has been reported in multiple threads in the official bug-tracker of MS Edge. You can track the progress on the issue from the following thread:

Hi Dimitar,

I will look into the Edge-bugtracker... 

Thank you for your time.
