Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 103888

(SeaMonkey :: Composer, defect)

Description

BuildID:    2001101117

When you attempt to write reply to a message with text quoted, 
UNDER A CERTAIN CONDITION, pressing delete at the end of a line would 
cause the next line to vanish.

You have some text above the current line and quoted text below the current 
line. I still couldn't quite figure out how to reproduce the error all the time.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
reply a message in plain text mode, with text quoted.
press delete at the end of a reply line, while there is
qutoed text below the line

Actual Results:  
sometimes, the next would be totally disappeard.
also, the display of the reply lines would have error,
leaving a blank area. You need to press RETURN to refresh the screen

Expected Results:  refer to Netscape Messenger 4.78 :)

haha.. I can reproduce the bug now. IT IS A FREAKING SERIOUS BUG!

1. reply a newsgroup message, text quoted.
2. type a few words.
3. with cursor still at the end of the line you just typed,
   press <DELETE> 
4. BOOM! everything is gone! all the words you just typed.. gone..
   abducted... vanished... neutralized...

Sorry for submitting a dupe. I had problem using the engiene to search for old  
bugs.. my english  is limited.
