On the cited page are several nested lists, some of which are ordered lists that
use the type attribute to control the display of numbering. Copying part of the
page to the clipboard results in the loss of this number formatting information.
Specifically, all numbered items seem to be copied in the style 1, 2, 3...
regardless of the regardless of the type specified on the ol tag and correctly
displayed on-screen.
Possibly related, if the selection starts in mid-list, then the outermost list's
items seem to be prefixed with # characters rather than numbered.
The page does not have a DOCTYPE specified, but I would still expect that text
copied to the clipboard would reflect what was actually displayed on the screen
at the time.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the cited web page.
2. Select some text from within the nested lists.
3. Copy to clipboard.
4. Paste into your text editor of choice and observe the list item markers.
Actual Results:
All items were labelled in the 1,2,3 style in the clipboard copy, or with #
markers for the outermost list items as described above.
Expected Results:
All items should have had markers matching what was displayed on the web page
when the information was copied.
