Reporter, you must provide a build ID. If this is another bug filed against a "Netscape QA" build, you MUST download a Mozilla build from Mozilla.org and reproduce the problem against it instead.
I forgot to put the build ID it is 2001091103 Sorry about that
Confirmed on Build 200191303 (WIndows and Mac). With slightly more clear steps to reproduce. 1. Launch Composer, and open new document. 2. Type 10 or so lines of text seperated by carriage returns. 3. Highlight all the text, and change the text color to red. 4. Highlight lines 5-8, and change the color to green. 5. Click on Edit > Undo. 6. Click away from text to deselect it. 7. Notice that the last line of highlighted text (line 8) is still highlighted. 8. Click on <HTML> Source, and then click back to Normal. 9. Try to highlight all the text. Actual results: All text is highlighted except for line 8. Expected results: All text should be highlighted.

11/28 03 trunk build Can't dup. Kin, why did you transfer this rather than closing it?
I didn't close it because I see this occassionally while using the product, but I can't reproduce it at will, even when I use the steps outlined here. I guess we can close this as a WORKSFORME?
moving to 9.9

closing this out since no one can repro it.
