2033237 - Clicking into contenteditable element can put cursor in nested contenteditable=false element

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1499029

(Core :: DOM: Editor, defect)

Description

[psychpsyo]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:148.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/148.0

Steps to reproduce:

Consider this HTML:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<div contenteditable style="border: 2px solid">
<span contenteditable="false">FALSE</span>
</div>

Actual results:

When clicking to the right of FALSE, into the empty space in the editable area, one would expect to be able to type. This is not the case. I assume that this is because the caret is placed at the very end inside of the false element instead of right after it.

Expected results:

I should be able to type in this box. (which works in Chromium and WebKit)
