Description James Forrester 2014-05-23 23:44:36 UTC

ve.ce.Surface.js only binds to paste; possibly it also needs to bind to beforepaste to work in modern MSIE too?

Comment 1 James Forrester 2014-08-27 00:36:43 UTC

Not needed in IE11, at least.

Comment 2 Mark A. Hershberger 2014-11-12 01:14:24 UTC

Probably going to open a few bugs about this, but this looked like it might be relevant.

I was testing pasting from a Word document to MSIE 11 and came up against the following error on paste:

   ve.dm.LinearData.static.getType = function(item){
    return this.isCloseElementData(item) ? item.type.slice(1) : item.type;
   };
** Unable to get property 'type' of undefined or null reference

When pasting from FF to IE the header on this page ("The migration from Bugzilla to Phabricator..."), only the non-hyperlinked text ends up pasted so you end up with ". For a smooth migration of your data, and add your Bugzilla email address in Phabricator by now!" (FF to FF and FF to Chrome copies the plain text representation of the hypertext.)
