IE Cursor not going to next line when we press enter & we have set forceEntermode=br as config option

[Satya Minnekanti]

To reproduce the defect:

1. set enterMode = CKEDITOR.ENTER_BR in the config option.

2. Open Ajax sample. Type some text.

3. Press Enter at the end of the line.

Expected Result:

New line is created and cursor is shown in the new line.

Actual Result:

New line is created but Cursor is shown in the same line from where we have pressed Enter.

Cursor will move to Correct line only when user starts typing the text.

Tested in IE 6&7

This is a correction for step 3..

select all the text that you have typed in step 2 & apply background color to the text, go to end of the line and then press Enter..

@satya, just to be sure... forceEntermode is a boolean, so it can't be set to br, only to true/false. Aren't you talking about the "enterMode" setting instead?

Hi fred, yes i am talking about "enterMode" it was mistakenly typed as forceEntermode

Satya, we *strongly* recommend NOT to use enterMode, leaving it's default setting. If you're using it in your applications, you should definitely consider changing it.

PS: This is just a note, which has nothing to do with the validity of this ticker.

It's not a good thing to introduce NBSP inside the editor without collecting it, the correct fix should instead make BR created outside of inline element.

<span>text</span><br />
INSTEAD OF
<span>text<br /></span>

Will this fix make it into 3.4.2?
