When you paste the content of some webpages in OOo, the content of some tags is not copied.

It works with Konqueror but not with epiphany.
It works with Firefox and OOo on Windows.

The text that is not paste is in meta-tags (ex : <CIV>, etc).
If you remove all these meta tags it works !

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open this page in Firefox : http://questions.assemblee-nationale.fr/q13/13-8502QE.htm
2.Select all the text and copy it
3.Paste into OOo writer

Actual Results:  
Some of the text is not pasted

Expected Results:  
The hole text is pasted

I confirm this happens using Minefield 2007103004 on Ubuntu 7.04.  I am going to attach a screenshot comparing both for ease of reference.

Hi,

I have made the same test with oocalc and it works. So the fault is in oowriter.

Comment 6

[u279076]

This does not mean that the fault is in OO Writer.  This means that there is a problem between OOWriter and Firefox.  Unless you can find more solid proof that OOWriter is the offending app.

Let's consider this bug UNCONFIRMED until we can otherwise prove that it is not a Firefox bug.  If it turns out to be an OO bug, perhaps we can do the considerate thing and pass this information off to the OO team.

I have posted a bug in the OOo tracker : http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=83447

I will try to seek the problem in OOo writer.

Sounds good to me.  Thanks for looking into this issue deeper.  I believe this bug can now be resolved as INVALID.
