(Whiteboard: [DUPE of bug 608718])

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:2.0b7) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0b7

There are some forums that use a WYSIWYG editor in Javascript that allows people to post messages to the forums using a Microsoft Word-like interface.  Lithium Forums is an example of one such forum that uses this interface, in fact, Lithium Forums is where the problem is showing.

You can type a message as normal but when you press the submit button it seems that the resulting text that's posted contains duplicate text of what you typed in the box.  Sometimes it's double, sometimes it's triple, the amount of text.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to a forum running Lithium Forums
2. Make a post with multiple paragraphs, press submit.
3. See your funky looking post.
Actual Results:  
A very weird looking post.

Expected Results:  
What can I say... I expect my post to look correct.
This is happening in Firefox 4.0 Beta 7.
Tom, does the problem still occur in the latest nightly build?
