[IE] Table cells deleted when trying to set formatting for the entire table

[Krzysztof Studnik]

DUP with a better description: #7220.

Test/Use Case

• clear content and insert an default empty table 3x2.

In MS Word, user is allowed to select whole table by clicking [+] in left upper corner, then it is possible to set unified format to all table cells and resizing. CKEditor also allows selection of whole table for resizing.

• select whole table (click on the border), so the resize options are visible

Instead of resize try to change formating

• select blue from styles combo box

Result in IE6 - part of cells are deleted

<h3 style="color: blue">
	&nbsp;</h3>
<h3 style="color: blue">
	&nbsp;</h3>
<h3 style="color: blue">
	&nbsp;</h3>
<h3 style="color: blue">
	&nbsp;</h3>
<table border="1" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" style="width: 500px">
  <tbody>
	<tr>
 	<td>
		&nbsp;</td>
	</tr>
	<tr>
	</tr>
	<tr>
	<td>
		&nbsp;</td>
	</tr>
	</tbody>
</table>
<p>
	&nbsp;</p>

In CKEditor v3.5 it was not possible to select style when table resize icons were visible

Should it be possible to set formating this way? Or when resizing table, setting format should be disabled?

---

In Opera, formating is set outside of selected table, but without changes inside.

<h2>
	&nbsp;</h2>
<table border="1" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" style="width: 500px">
	<tbody>
...

In Firefox, only first cell got formating

There's no browser consistent way of displaying table handles among browsers, but at least we provide the path bar for achieving such a task, we just to make sure that works.

This is still an issue in CKEditor 4.3.2 and IE8-IE10

[Marek Lewandowski]

Note that this problem occurs only when table cells are empty.
