9543	raw id fields' popups in generic inlines fail in IE  6/7	Jacob Smullyan	nobody	"When using a raw id field in a generic inline, the popup will not work in IE 6/7.  Instead of popping up the select-to-add form, the javascript click handler fails, and the document is replaced by a select-to-change form.

This happens because generic inlines use dashes in their field ids, and this field id is used to construct the window name passed to window.open() -- but IE doesn't permit dashes in window names.  There is already some code in place to deal with IE's similar allergy to periods, by replacing then with double underscores; I attach a patch to deal with dashes in the same manner.

This patch works for django-1.0.X and django trunk."		closed	contrib.admin	1.0		duplicate			Unreviewed	1	0	0	0	0	0
