108120 - mozilla 1.0 editor text widget tracking bug (eg textarea)

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: DOM: Editor, defect, P1)

Description

[Christopher Blizzard (:blizzard)]

This is a tracking bug for mozilla 1.0 plain text editor fixes.  Hopefully, this
will let us gather all of the serious problems with the plain text editor that
would make 1.0 painful.

So was this bug intended to track plain text widgets, plaintext mail compose, 
and the plain text editor?

Comment 2

[Christopher Blizzard (:blizzard)]

Well, I had meant it to cover mail compose, but they are all the same, no?

Comment 3

[kinmoz]

Hmmm, most of the bugs that blocked this bug were text widget specific, so I 
went ahead and added more text widget specific bugs. Should I make my own 
tracking bug for text widgets and move all these bugs to that?

To answer blizzard's question, the answer is no, they are not the same. The 
plaintext mail compose window is actually an HTML Editor with special rules ... 
that's necessary because mail uses a <PRE> full of the quoted reply text to 
preserve the spacing of the orginal mail, but at the same time allowing the user 
to type in a proportional font.

OK, I opened bug 108194 to track plain text mail compose problems.  Are there
any bugs here that should be moved over there?

Changing summary from:

to:

Bulk move of mozilla1.0 bugs to mozilla.1.0.1. I will try to pull some of these
back in if I can.

[Christopher Aillon (sabbatical, not receiving bugmail)]

This should be targetted at 1.0 as it's a 1.0 tracking bug.  Fixing.

Comment 8

[Aaron Andersen]

Bugs currently not targeted at 1.0, but probably should be IMO: bug 33654, bug
50633, bug 68331, and probably more that I can't find right now.  There sure are
a lot of textarea bugs in this product...

Bulk moving all nsbeta1 nominations to future-P1. If they are approved
(nsbeta1+) they will be moved to mozilla1.0

Comment 10

[Jonas Jørgensen]

It doesn't make any sense to have a 1.0 tracking bug targeted for anything
post-1.0. Pulling target milestone back and adding mozilla1.0 keyword.
