100666 - Creating a table from a selection in "Show All Tags" view does not properly create tables

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: Composer, defect)

Description

[TucsonTester2]

Build ID: 2001091705

In "Show All Tags" view tables are not properly created from a selection if the
table is made at the beginning of the document.

Reproduciblity: Everytime
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open Composer
2.Type in "what the"
3.Highlight the text from right to left using the mouse button
4.Click on the table button on the toolbar and choose to have it seperated by
spaces and click ok

Actual Results:
The text "what the" will be copied and placed below the table.  The table itself
looks ok.  I believe that this is due to the fact that the body tag may be
highlighted, but there is nothing reflecting this.

Expected Results:I would expect the table to be properly made without the
duplicated text.

Confirmed on Win2k using build 2001091905. 

One thing to note, you have to add a step where you switch to Show All Tags
view. So it should read:

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open Composer
2.Click on "Show All Tags" to switch to that view
3.Type in "what the"
4.Highlight the text from right to left using the mouse button
5.Click on the table button on the toolbar and choose to have it seperated by
spaces and click ok

One other thing that I found was that you are also able to create a link with a
tag.  The link does not stay but it does allow you to click the link button and
go through the creation process.  It describes the selection to create the link
with as mixed.  Shouldn't the link button be greyed out as well?

its still valid.

I am still seeing the problem on Win 2k using the 20011015 Netscape trunk build,
but I am not seeing this in Mozilla.  Should this bug be reopened, moved to
Bugscape, or something else entirely?

reassign bugs in case they are later reopened
