Details

found using 2003.04.24 comm bits. 1. have the following code in the editor: <body> <dl> the definition list <dt>the term</dt> <dd>the definition <p>some paragraph text inside the definition.</p> </dd> </dl> </body> 2. in composer, click at the end of the content, to the right of the period in "inside the definition." 3. hit the Return (or Enter) key. expected behavior: should add another line break (add a <br>) actual results: nothing is added.
an even more minimalized test case exhibits the same problem: <body> <dd>the definition <p>some paragraph text inside the definition.</p> </dd> </body> i can "workaround" this issue if i add something (text or even &nbsp; --but not plain whitespace) between the </p> and the </dd>. i can then add line breaks (<br>'s), but they end up being placed *btwn* the </p> and </dd>. so i still cannot get outside of the </dd> in the Normal editing view --i need to go into HTML source view to do that.

Now, it inserts a new <dt>. Although Chrome inserts <dd><p><br></p></dd>, the difference is not in the scope of this bug.
