# JavaScript problems since upgrade: Edit Post page

 * I upgraded from 3.4.2 to 3.5 and am having JavaScript problems. I was able to
   alleviate some by disabled one old plugin (Ad Sense Manager), but problems on
   the widgets page and the edit post page continues. When I click on a post to 
   edit, there’s nothing in the tags box even though tags show on the post list-
   view page. When I view source, I see two separate tags form fields – the first
   one is not displaying:
 *     ```
       <div id="post_tag" class="tagsdiv">
       <div class="jaxtag">
       <div class="nojs-tags hide-if-js">
       <p>Add or remove tags</p>
       <textarea id="tax-input-post_tag" class="the-tags" cols="20" rows="3" name="tax_input[post_tag]">list of tags on the post here</textarea>
       </div>
       <div class="ajaxtag hide-if-no-js">
       <label class="screen-reader-text" for="new-tag-post_tag">Tags</label>
       <div class="taghint">Add New Tag</div>
       <p>
       <input id="new-tag-post_tag" class="newtag form-input-tip" type="text" value="" autocomplete="off" size="16" name="newtag[post_tag]">
       <input class="button tagadd" type="button" value="Add">
       </p>
       </div>
       <p class="howto">Separate tags with commas</p>
       </div>
       <div class="tagchecklist"></div>
       </div>
       ```
   
 * So, it seems that js isn’t working, but it’s showing the fields built to require
   js.
 * I read through [this thread](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/troubleshooting-wordpress-35-master-list?replies=4),
   but do not have the plug-ins or mods mentioned. I’ve reverted to the default 
   them and disabled all plug-ins, but the problem still persists.

 * I know I am supposed to create a new thread, rather than write in here, but somehow
   I seem to face the same issue mire is facing. When i tried to debug using firebug,
   i’m stuck here.
