Description Oliver Keyes 2013-07-11 12:45:15 UTC
The screenshot is the result of the following:

1. go to article
2. blank article, removing everything
3. type "1"
4. type "2"
..and what you end up with is:

1
12

The text is, in addition, impossible to delete.

I reported something similar in Bug 50947, though there I couldn't type at all. Roan asked for JS console output there, so I guess that it would be useful here, too.

This may also be browser-specific.

I'm seeing something very slightly different to this - see https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback&oldid=563808463#Odd_bug_after_blanking_page

If it matters I'm using Firefox 22 on Xubuntu Linux. I don't have another browser to test it in (Konqueror is apparently blacklisted from VE).
Comment 4 James Forrester 2013-07-17 16:46:54 UTC
This is the same as bug 50947, I believe - merging.
