Problem:
--------
If you use characters like '+' in category code, like '+TEST', you can not edit
or delete the category. Required format is not enforced.

Solution:
---------
In categorie.tt, function Check(ff), trim user input and test it for unwanted
characters.

Instead of:
-----------
if (ff.categorycode.value.length==0) {
   ok=1;
   _alertString += _("- categorycode missing") + "\n";
}

Put:
----

ff.categorycode.value = ff.categorycode.value.trim();
if (ff.categorycode.value.length==0) {
   ok=1;
   _alertString += _("- categorycode missing") + "\n";
}
else{
   var patt=/^[a-zA-Z0-9\-_]+$/g;    
   if ( !patt.test(ff.categorycode.value) ) {
      ok=1;
      _alertString += _("- category code can only contain the following
characters: letters, numbers, - and _") + "\n";            
   }            
}
