96323 - Typing in colored font using bold, italic, or underlined will double characters

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 73170

Description

[TucsonTester1]

When going back and forth between basic font and bold font, the words will 
start to double themselves. (eg; normal=hello, bold=hellohel).  Now, this only 
happens if you are using a font color other than the default black color.  It 
will also happen on any background. It seems to typically be happening on the 
4th line. Checking the HTML of the documents which had the problem, the only 
difference between the normal document and the one which messed up is as 
follows:
normal:<b>yep</b><br>
<br>
</body>
</html>
problem:<b>yep</b><br>
<br>
</font>
</body>
</html>

On the one which has the problem, its adding a </font> after the last <br> if 
you take out the </font>, then go back to "normal" the additional characters 
are gone and it looks normal. 

steps to repeat:
1.choose a font color
2.type something <hit enter>
3.click "B" (bold) on the toolbar
4.type something <hit enter>
5.unbold font, type something
6.click "B" type something  **this is where it will start to double the font**


NOTE****THIS IS THE SAME IF YOU CHOOSE ITALIC OR UNDERLINED AS WELL

Was able to reproduce with black font as well, with only changing attributes
such as Bold, italic, and underline.
