Details
While editing a page in Wikipedia, clicking a toolbar button to format text (e.g. the bold button) resets the textarea edition history instead of appending the formatting operation. The Wikipedia toolbar is based on the JavaScript method '<textarea>.value'. NB: IE does not behave the same and actually updates textarea history when invoking JavaScript, but the IE code is very different. Perhap's this is not a bug indeed and there is a Mozilla JavaScript alternative that works fine? NB2: try https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=67707 from bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86372, this behave the same after appending text with the button: history is reset.

No, unless I'm misunderstanding, this bug is "type 'foo', you can right click and select 'Undo' and it goes away, but type 'foo', highlight it, and click the button for Bold and then 'Undo' is disabled." That is actually fixed in trunk nightlies (though for some reason you wind up with 'Select All' afterward), but I can't seem to find where it was fixed, or broken.

I think this was fixed by bug 158071.

You're right this is the same bug. Sorry I didn't searched bug database for the 'input' keyword... I saw the fix was in the 1.8a trunk and my Firefox 1.0 is based on 1.7.5, does this mean the bug won't be solved until march 2005 with FF 1.1?

In terms of *releases*, yes, not until 1.1. If you really need it, though, there's likely to be times when the nightly builds are more than stable enough to use between now and then. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 158071 ***
