This is a duplicate of #486931, but that one is closed as unconfirmed and I'm creating this one just in case.

So, the issue is still present in the latest Firefox (Ubuntu). I have nothing to add to the description given in #486931.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to http://html5demos.com/contenteditable;
2. Got to the end of the list in the sample contenteditable element and press <End>
3. Press <Return> twice in a raw;
4. type in some more lines ended by <Return>

Inspect the markup generated after the ordered list.

Actual Results:  
The new text lines are positioned in DOM immediately in the contenteditable element and are text nodes separated with <br/>s.

Expected Results:  
The new lines of text added after the list should be <p> elements.
Bug 486931 isn't "closed" and UNCONFIRMED.

UNCONFIRMED is the very first state a bug gets into when it enters Bugzilla (if the reporter doesn't have higher permissions).

So it's OK to continue the bug investigation in bug 486931.

Uh... this is not a duplicate of bug 486931.  This bug is about the action enter should take; that bug is about editing arbitrary XML.

Boris is right.

I probably had a wrong number in my copy/paste buffer: I intended to paste this number 449243, this is the other bug: "contenteditable stuck inserting <br> instead of <p> in some cases", and it is RESOLVED INCOMPLETE.

I'm sorry I've messed things up.
Ah, that makes more senese.

Reporter, slightly off topic, but anyway... 

The trick to make bug numbers become links is called Autolinkification, and you can read more about it here:
http://www.bugzilla.org/docs/4.0/en/html/hintsandtips.html#AEN2591

Basically it's very easy. Just write something like bug 449243 in the text and it will become a link automatically.
