Description Stryn 2014-07-19 19:05:22 UTC 
When I select (highlight) some text on the edit mode and start to type some text by replacing the old text, Visual Editor starts copying the text and typing by itself. I've seen it happening only on few articles, like https://fi.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Arseni_Jatsenjuk&veaction=edit and https://fi.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mykola_Azarov&veaction=edit

I tried this with Firefox and Chrome, logged-in / logged-out, and the same happens on both browsers.

In case someone didn't understand my explanation, I have a video uploaded to http://tinypic.com/r/mbik2w/8
On the video I only typed "k" (it doesn't matter what key you hit), and that's what happened.

I can't reproduce this issue...
Comment 3 James Forrester 2014-11-03 22:55:05 UTC 
Yeah, I'm pretty sure we fixed this CE buggy stuff a few months ago.
Comment 4 etonkovidova 2014-11-04 00:45:31 UTC 
Seems to be fixed - not reproducible.
