CKEditor doesn't save in Chrome (hangs at 90% upload) when big table in page

I'm using CKEditor for a CMS and when I have a very big table in the page it hangs when I save the page. It only happens in Chrome. In Internet Explorer it works fine.

If I paste the HTML code of the table in the page itself (WYSIWYG view) it saves the page.
It only happens in Chrome, I'm using Windows 7 with Chrome 31.0.1650.63 m.
In other browsers it works fine.
When I save the page Chrome shows a Uploading... (90%) tooltip on the bottom of the screen. It's like Chrome tries to upload something.
A smaller table (with less rows) works fine.

I attached a sample of the table I used. To reproduce: just copy the HTML and paste it into the Code of your CKEditor window and then try to save the page in Chrome.

Can anyone else confirm this bug?

The problem is that editor

The problem is that editor doesn't have much to do with data saving.
Once you press submit button, whether this is traditional submit or ajax submit (where getData() should be used), it is no longer editor which handles this.

Please open Chrome dev-tools and check if you are getting any JS errors in Console Tab or any HTTP errors (timeout perhaps) in Net tab.
This can happen due to some error on server-side or due to e.g. request timeout which is set on server-side set to very small value.

Please check the above and let me know.

Thanks for your reply j

Thanks for your reply j.swiderski

Just did that:

- No errors in the console
- Under the Network tab I still see, after 5 minutes of waiting, that the method 'POST' is still pending.

Method: POST
Status: (pending)
Type: Pending
Initiator: Other
Size: 13 B / Content: 0 B
Time: Pending

Strange! In other browsers this doesn't happen and when I make the table some smaller it works fine.

Could you check if data

Could you check if data passed from editor looks the same in Chrome and e.g Firefox - can be done with Firebug and Dev tools.
Have you got any custom plugins installed or custom security rules defined for Chrome? Could you check if disabling them fixes your problem.
Could you debug is request reaches server-side. Please debug whole request process.

@j.swiderski Can you reproduce this bug with the table I sent in the first post? Just to be sure it's only happening on our site.

No I can't. This is the first thing I have checked.
I have tried standalone editor freshly downloaded from our page and this table - there were no problems.

It looks like the problems

It looks like the problems was on my own PC. Some Chrome setting or anti-virus was causing the 'hang'.
