Description WhatamIdoing 2014-06-16 22:37:25 UTC 
María typed her name in VisualEditor on a Mac:  [SHIFT] m + a + r + [OPTION] e + i + a. 

She runs Chrome on a MacBook Pro with a U.S. keyboard.  The result was this:


[top of page]
´

Lots of text here

María

The rest of the page

[end of page]


Using a normal keyboard shortcut to add accents to characters should not result in  stray "´" characters at the top of the page.

See https://office.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?diff=113478&oldid=113425 for an example.
Comment 1 WhatamIdoing 2014-06-16 22:38:01 UTC 
I can't reproduce this in Safari 6.1.4 on my Mac and haven't tried to reproduce it in Chrome.
Comment 2 James Forrester 2014-06-18 21:41:38 UTC 
I can't reproduce in Chrome or Safari either, in master, testing or production – possibly something odd with a system IME or similar? Provisionally marking as WORKSFORME – can María test again and confirm?
Comment 3 WhatamIdoing 2014-06-20 22:04:05 UTC 
Testing after the latest update was unable to reproduce the problem.
