13439 - SelectAll Delete does not repaint entire edit area

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: DOM: Editor, defect, P3)

Description

[kinmoz]

1. Start a new editor test bed window with the default test page.

2. Select all of the content. (CTRL-A)

3. Hit the backspace key.

You should see the caret move to the beginning of the document, but notice how
you still see parts of the document that should have been deleted.

Refreshing the window fixes this.

This only happens when you bring up a new window. If you undo all your changes
and then repeat steps 1 through 3, you will not be able to reproduce the bug.

Fixed summary line. Accepting bug. Marking M11.

mUpdateBatchCnt code was interfering with the new code that was added to
UpdateView() that accumulated dirty rects.

Fix checked into mozilla/view/src/nsViewManager.cpp revision 3.118

  - Removed all references to mUpdateBatchCnt
    in nsViewManager::UpdateView().

  - The methods Enable/DisableRefresh() now check to
    see if we are batching before executing their code.
    This will prevent any layout/parser code from turning
    on refresh before all Begin/EndUpdateViewBatch() calls
    are unwound.
