#8736 closed Bug (fixed)

IE: Pasting a list after applying font-size to a paragraph wraps list-items in spans

Reported by: Jakub Ś Owned by:
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: General Version: 3.1
Keywords: IE IBM Cc: monahant@…

Description (last modified by Jakub Ś)

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Go to any sample (using IE)
  2. Copy the bullets from the attached document
  3. Write out, "Hello World"
  4. Select "Hello World" and apply a font-size of 14
  5. Place your cursor at the end of the line, (Hello World^), and press the enter key to create a new line (Element's path is showing body p span)
  6. Paste the bullets using the CTRL+V keyboard shortcut.

Result: All list items are wrapped in span-tags with font-size 14.

The issue has been reproducible from CKEditor 3.1 (In earlier versions results were not even close to the ones presented here)

NOTE:All browsers copy span to another line but only IE applies this span to inline elements or text

The same thing is happening for E.g. table or header (see attachment).

Actual list items are wrapped in spans when you switch to source mode.
Before switching block element (table/heading/list) is wrapped in inline span (see IE8.png)

This causes extra problems in IE8 and IE9 when following theses steps:

  1. Copy list from docx
  2. Clear editor contents with Click, CRTL+A, Backspace
  3. Type hello world, select it SHIFT+Home and apply font 14px
  4. Unselect with right arrow
  5. Paste list with CRTL+V
  6. Press Backspace

Result:
IE9 cursors jumps before getting to last list item.
IE8 last letter of last item is deleted but cursor is displayed in wrong place. Additionally after pressing backspace CRTL+A won't work.

The same root of the problem (pasting block into inline in IE) is applicable for other tickets: #9207, #8294, #9740. I think they all can be fixed with one patch.

#9480 was marked as duplicate.

The same thing happens if you for example copy table from editor and paste it into styled paragraph.

This has now been raised by one of our customers with the following simple usecase:

  • Copy the following into Source view and switch back to wysiwyg mode:
    <p>
    	Black text <span style="color: #ff0000">Red text</span></p>
    
    
  • Copy the text and place the cursor at the end of it: 'Black text Red text'
  • Hit enter and then paste the content.

Problem: The 2nd line of text is all red. It should be the exact same as the first line of text.

This is reproducible in all versions of IE in CKEditor 3.5.x and 3.6.x. I cannot reproduce it in CKEditor 4.

Resolution: fixed
Status: confirmedclosed

Problem seems no longer reproducible in latest CKEditor 4.2. I'm marking it as fixed.

@IBM if you still wish to have this ticket fixed for CKEditor 3.x please leave a comment and i will reopen this ticket.
