The Gecko in Deer Park does not work with HTMLArea controls correctly. Style
changes are serialized as empty <span> elements.

1. Go to http://tinymce.moxiecode.com and click Examples, Simple Example
2. Select a word, say, "editor" and make it bold.
3. Click submit

Actual Results:  
The word editor was surrounded by a <span> element with no style attribute

Expected Results:  
The word editor was surrounded by a <strong> element.

Reproducible with Deer Park a2 and SeaMonkey/20050727, WFM with Mozilla 1.8b1.

Works for me, using:

Firefox/1.6a1

Also WFM with SeaMonkey 1.0b/20050929 and SeaMonkey 1.1a/20051002 (<strong>).

According to the Changelog a new version of TinyMCE was released on 2005-09-26,
so I retested Deer Park a2 and the <span> element now has style="font-weight:
bold".

So is there a page showing this problem?

Maybe this was bug 301490?

Comment 8

[Mike Hearn]

It seems to work now, so I guess the regression was fixed. Closing.

Assuming fixed by bug 301490...
