Deleting a row does not correct the rowspan of merged cells

[Koen Willems]

Take a table like this:

<table title="tabel" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" summary="table">
    <thead>
        <tr>
            <th scope="col">1</th>
            <th scope="col">2</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
        <tr>
            <td>a</td>
            <td rowspan="3">b</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>c</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>d</td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>

Now, put the cursor in cell a, right click and remove that row. We see that cell b disappears. Or go to cell b and remove that row: cell b is deleted and cells c and d are left over.

And I added a patch.

Made a little improvement; there was an unneccesary check in the previous patch.

The patch is breaking the merge command when 2x2 cells are selected in the default table.

Found a typo in 2813_4.patch while working on #2859 - posted new patch which fixes it.

[Frederico Caldeira Knabben]

There are too many changes being proposed to the code. As the 2.6.5 is mainly concerned about compatibility, it's better to avoid the risk of braking this.

We may include these changes in a future version, probably on CKEditor instead.

FCKeditor was retired and is no longer supported. All active development was moved to its successor, ​CKEditor 3.x, that is a fully mature and far superior product. We recommend you upgrade as soon as possible since this issue is no longer a problem in current code base.
