Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Core :: DOM: Editor, defect)

Description

[Russell Odom]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9.6) Gecko/20011120
BuildID:    2001112009

When you select 'Paste as Quotation' for an e-mail, the text is pasted OK but
the cursor appears in the wrong place and is the wrong size.
I'll attach a screenshot showing the problem (a picture speaks a thousand words
and all that!).


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Get some text in the clipboard - at least 2 lines
2. Start composing an e-mail message (plain text mode - haven't tried in HTML
format)
3. Select 'Edit > Paste as Quotation'


Actual Results:  Text appeared, but cursor is in wrong place and too big.

Expected Results:  Cursor should be smaller and appear at end of last line
pasted/on next line.

As mentioned, here's the screenshot of the bug - problem circled in red.
This is as the window appears immediately after selecting 'Paste as quotation'.

Confirmed in Modern as well with 2001-12-12.03 under W2K

Is this still a problem after Akkana fixed a bug or two with pasted quotations
(or am I thinking of something else that Akkana fixed?)?

I've just tried this in 0.9.8 (2002020406) and the caret now appears correctly.
However, long text should be wrapped after being pasted as quotation - I can't
find it, so I'll open a new bug for this.
