When looking in the DevTools in Chrome I get the following warnings and Errors.

'head[profile]' is not supported by Chrome, Chrome Android, Edge 79+, Firefox 4+, Safari 16.4+. (Warning)

sales/sales_order_entry.php?NewInvoice=0

A 'viewport' meta element was not specified. (This shows as an error)

One or more documents in this page is in Quirks Mode, which will render the affected document(s) with quirks incompatible with the current HTML and CSS specifications. (Warning)

And then it was back, when I select any drop down on the Direct Invoice. Switch off all the extensions, and stil get the issue when selecting a drop down.

The search will continue.

Looks like it was Grammarly's AI Assistant. When switched off the error disappeared in accordance with your reference above.

Thanks for the input.

Tested it on Firefox and Chrome, and do not get the same issue, only on Edge. Trying to see what the issue is with Edge giving this issue?

I get the following with 2.4.18 on both PHP 8.2 and 8.3. 2.4.17 does not give me this lot of information on the top of the new Direct Invoice:

I have no idea what this means.

Setting debug = 0 in config, makes no difference.

I updated my site to 8.3 and find that when I create an invoice, I cannot select customers. I get a loading circle on the top center followed by an exclamation in an orange triangle.

This same problem occurs wherever I need to select a customer. For example, under Banking and General Ledger --> Banking Reports --> Customer --> Print Invoices.

I have reverted back to php 7.4, which is the latest version the software runs properly on without errors.

I am running 2.4.18

I have a number of Joomla and Moodle sites and I need to upgrade my PHP from 8.2 to 8.3 for the new versions of Moodle and Joomla.

Will Front accounting still function?

I have upgraded on site's PHP and will check if I get any issue in FA and report here.
