Description Nicolas Raoul 2012-06-27 04:21:09 UTC

Steps to reproduce:
1) Go to http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:VisualEditorSandbox
2) Press CTRL-A (or select all text with the mouse)
3) Press CTRL-X to cut all this text. The text disappears.
4) Press CTRL-V to reinsert the text.

PROBLEM1: Text is not reinserted, the page stays blank.
PROBLEM2: One can enter text, but not new lines. Pressing "Enter" does not have any effect.

Tested on Ubuntu 2012.04, Firefox 13.0.1

Comment 1 Nicolas Raoul 2012-06-27 04:23:35 UTC

On Ubuntu 2012.04, Chromium 18.0.1025.151: Only PROBLEM1 occurs, PROBLEM2 does not occur.

Comment 2 James Forrester 2012-06-27 22:27:32 UTC

Confirm problem 1 (but not 2) on Chrome 19/Mac and both problems on Firefox 13/Mac.

Comment 3 Nicolas Raoul 2012-06-28 23:30:39 UTC

The component below does not have this bug:

Comment 4 Christian Williams 2012-07-02 21:33:25 UTC

This looks like a bug in fixupInsertion. When the entire contents is cut, only paragraph and /paragraph are in the documentModel. Pasting more than 2 paragraphs will error. 

Steps to reproduce:
1) Create a document with 3 simple paragraphs.
2) Ctl-A
3) Ctl-X
4) Ctl-V

This fixupInsertion issue is fixed in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/14398 . This fixes problem #1, which occurred in all browsers. Problem #2 is a Firefox-specific selection issue, so I'm filing a separate bug for that and closing this one as fixed.

Roan, could you please tell us the identifier of the new bug report you created?

Sorry, meant to do that but forgot. I filed bug 38207 for it and later found it was a duplicate of bug 38037.
