[Jan Pernica]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; cs-CZ; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041217

I have populated the text of the size 89033 characters into textarea - it is
displayed OK.
When I make CTRL+A, CTRL+C and paste it somewhere e.g. into another textarea
only a part of it is coppied - exactly 5912 characters. When I make post it also
sends only 5192 characters instead of 89033. M$ IE works fine :-(

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use mozilla suite 1.7.5 on Win XP
2. Open page with textarea with long text (89033)
3. Focus into textarea
4. CTRL+A CTRL+C
5. CTRL+A <Del> CTRL+V
Actual Results:  
Only part of the copied text is pasted (5912)

Expected Results:  
The whole text should be copied

The text in textarea is Html transformed from MS Excel Sheet with commplicated
formating.
Firefox 1.0 makes the same.

I have found where the problem is:
The text contains the following code:
	mso-number-format:"#,##0.00\ 022Kč022";

If I replace the text in quotes with eg. General then IT WORKS FINE.

Can you please upload a simplfied text case (HTML example)  - it's hard to
reproduce this problem without an example to work from.
