EEO issues when display names use commas (Article # 211)

View products that this article applies to.

Problem:

When using EEO in fcClient, and EEO tries to resolve names, there can be some confusing behavior if the display name has commas in it.

For example, if there is an Outlook contact whose name is Fred Smith, and his display name is "Smith, Fred".
If you type "fred" in the to address line, and resolve the addresses, it will resolve to "Smith, Fred".
However, if you resolve again, it will split the name on the comma, and try to resolved two names: "fred" and "smith".
This is confusing, and can be  undesirable behavior.

Resolution:


In /pages/eeo/eeo.js, change line 23 from:
var seperator=","
to:
var seperator=";"

It's changing a comme to a semi-colon.
