What did you do? ================ While translating one page I encountered an issue with rewriting anchors in visual editor. I did as follows: - Mark the whole text of the anchor - Start typing What happened? ============== It basically writes just few characters inside anchor tag and then skips outside and continues in paragraph. What should have happened? ========================== Obviously it should keep the text inside the anchor. But as a web developer I know it's hard to accomplish due to not knowing where is the anchor's end. But it should at least pop outside the <a> tag when there is space. Is there anything else we should know? ====================================== I also noticed that the editor inserts " " chars instead of normal spaces (randomly?). Could this be related?

Hey there, I tried to reproduce this, but it seems to work fine. Do you have an example for this?

I've seen the spontaneous thing for years now. I don't know why it happens. I pretty much never create anchors; I only create links using heading names or using macros; I find the clutter of anchors displayed in the editor annoying so I don't use them. :)

I'm not able to reproduce the behaviour where it writes a few characters and skips outside. If I place my cursor at the end of the anchor and type it is outside the anchor 100% of the time. I agree this is super annoying, especially when translating, but I'm not sure it's a bug? It might just be the default behaviour of the editor. I usually work around this by typing the entire anchor with one extra character at the end and then when I am done editing I delete the extra character.
