Copy paste & safari4 problem

Confirmed.

Pasting into Safari wipes out the entire content area - the fix for safari resize must be related somehow.

Worst!

So our current options are either no cut and paste, or broken rendering.

I've tested right now Safari 4.0.4 both on Mac and Windows and I don't see any problem copying and pasting into FCKeditor.

Hi, I have had this issue as well.

I just created a ticket under the project trac detailing the behaviour.

To clarify it for this ticket, you must use the keyboard paste in Safari, and the behaviour is observed on a mac.

I can create a movie of the problem if that would be helpful. It's pretty severe, considering how important keyboard cut and paste is.

If you could make adjustments to the ticket so it would be handled faster alfonsoml that would be great:

As I said, I tested with Safari 4.0.4 on a Mac and I didn't see any problem. Just to be sure I've downloaded the released version of 2.6.5 and I can paste using Command+C and Command+V with no problems.

There must be something else required to trigger the problem or lots of people would be reporting the issue and since November there have been only three post reporting the problem

Hi again,

I went back and took the demo from 2.6.5 and created a video diagramming exactly how to cause the problem in Safari.

The video is located here: http://blip.tv/play/AYG76w4C

One detail that I had not mentioned before, but is definitely relevant, is that the cut and paste must include some type of styling - otherwise it does appear to work correctly.

All of the sections on my own site have styling involved, which explains why I see the problem every time.

Anyways, watch the video and all shall be revealed.

thanks

Ok, now I can reproduce the problem, but it would take a lot of time to figure out what's the reason to this strange behavior, so your best chance is to test with the revision log at http://rev.fckeditor.net/ to find out exactly what's the patch that introduced the problem.

Hi,

Is there a document that describes how to "build" fckeditor from an svn-checkout.

I cannot perform the above mentioned task without instructions as to how to test the checkout to see if it's broken or not.

I don't believe this problem exists in 2.6.4, so there aren't that many patches to look at really.

You don't need that, it's much simpler with that site:
you have to pick only a revision then click on the "samples" link of that row and you'll get the code of that version right in your browser. I mean: you don't have to do any coding, just jump back and forward between the revisions until you find the first that works and you only need your Safari, nothing more.

Ok, I found the problem areas within the above repo:

On 07/27/09 11:27:11 there was a commit made referencing:
"Fixed #3481 : Fixed Fixed an issue in WebKit where paste actions inside table cells may leak outside of the table cell."

Prior to this fix, pasting worked fine. After this point, the pastes don't work correctly anymore...

what next?

Add a note about this to the ticket that you filed. Now it needs someone to find a solution that fixes the original bug but doesn't create this one.
