[Firefox] Unnecessary <p> tags are inserted in InsertHtml function of FCKEditor Object

[Dr. Sharad Kelkar]

Unnecessary <p> tags are inserted in InsertHtml function of FCKEditor Object. Suppose we insert HTML text programmatically as follows

var html_text = " This is <b>some <span style=\" color: maroon; \" >HTML</span></b> text " ; var ed = FCKeditorAPI.GetInstance('TEXT') ed.InsertHtml(html_text);

Than some extra <p> tags appear in the inserted text. ( confirmed by viewing HTML source )

This problem is seen only in Firefox 2/3 Beta ( Or any GECKO browser )

It is not seen with IE7 / Safari 3.04 or Opera 9.5 Tested on Windows XP SP2 Thanks

Hi!

Could you please provide us the final output you are having in the reported test case? Please also indicate what you would expect to have.

Thanks

On your request I am providing link for test case: Just Click here: ​http://vrunda.dyndns.org/fcktest/index.html

Unnecessary <p> tags get inserted in Firefox only, not in other browsers. First click Insert HTML button. Click on "view source", and come back to normal view.

Then you will find one line inserted between words "some HTML " and "text with colors formatted."

Hi!

I was able to reproduce your problem on you page however my local testing doesn't didn't show any problem. My script:

<script type="text/javascript">
var oFCKeditor = new FCKeditor('FCKeditor1');
oFCKeditor.BasePath = "fckeditor/";
oFCKeditor.Height = 300 ;
oFCKeditor.Config["CustomConfigurationsPath"] = "/new/myconfig.js" 

oFCKeditor.Value	= '<p>Hello, I am Mister X ...<\/p>' ;
oFCKeditor.Create();
// This is a sample code for reproduction of bug #1605
function test1() {
var text = 'This is <b>some  <span style="color: maroon;">HTML</span></b> text with colors formatted.' ;
    FCKeditorAPI.GetInstance('FCKeditor1').InsertHtml(text);
    return false;}
</script>
</div>
  <br />
        <a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="test1();">Test 1</a>
		

It works perfectly fine using versions 2.5.1, 2.6 beta ane the latest SVN.

Ok I reviewed your bug again. And I can defiantly confirm it. It seems it is related to oFCKeditor.ReplaceTextarea(); function because in other cases (as in the script above) it works OK.

I've attached a sample page for reproduction of this bug based on your sample page.

Thanks for investigating.

[Wojciech Olchawa]

A minimum sample page to reproduce the bug.

Persistent problem noticed even in IE7 and Safari, and other browsers that extra unwanted <p> get inserted around editor text when you switch back and forth between source view and WYSIWYG mode.
