Snags with text fields on configuration page

[tintori]

I ran into a few of glitches when configuring a project this time around, all having to do with the text fields acting funny. Here they are in descending order of significance.

1. I wanted to add hyperlink URL and names to all three project.JSON files, but those text fields still aren't accepting input.
   (Perhaps for now I can just tell you what goes in there and you can type it into the project.JSON files directly?

   • worms: https://wormbase.org/serach/gene/%name — "Wormbase"
   • mouse: http://www.informatics.jax.org/searchtool/Search.do?query=%name&submit=Quick+Search — "Mouse Genome Informatics"
   • human: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/?term=human%5Borganism%5D+AND+%name — "NCBI")

2. The new grid.csv input field creates a glitch only when testing the configuration. I think maybe the program gets confused about how to override your default compact grid feature. Once you save it out and reload the home page, though, it all works swimmingly.

3. The min and max fields don't let you type a negative sign unless there's other text in the box already. It's navigable, but I always end up typing 4 instead of -4, and then having to go back and fix it.

Oh, one more little glitch I ran into while configuring a project—

4. When I hit the "Test" button to review my configuration, if I went to the menu to click on the "About this dataset" link, instead of being send to the README.md file I had just uploaded, I got routed back to the configuration page.

You could do that on Dropbox

If you have workarounds for these, I'll fix them later

Thanks, I'll take note

OK I updated the editing form and the project configuration files. The others I will do when I have time

Ok, sounds good.

Yea, I would have added the hyperlinks to the treatment.json files in Dropbox myself, but didn't know what the required keys would be, since there wasn't a template I could look at. Thanks for adding them.

I'm going to take this out of the "finish project" milestone because the other issues listed here are just annoying, not "show stoppers"
