A weird behavior of FCKEditor

I have integrate FCKEditor to my web application and I found something really weird.

When I click on the text box,
and then I click on some other part of the web page that's outside the text box (like other texts / labels),
and I click on one of the toolbar commands (like "Bold" , the result is that the content outside the textbox changes.

I thought it was something to do with my app, but the demo on

http://www.fckeditor.net/demo/

also have this behavior.

I click on the the text box first, then I click on "editor" in "This HTML text editor brings ... " , then click on "B", and "editor" become bold.

Is this possibly a bug? Or is it my browser (IE 6 SP 1)?
Can anyone confirm this? Thank in advance.

Re: A weird behavior of FCKEditor

That problem is mostly solved in the current nightly.

There is still a way to modify the content outside the editor, but for the most part nobody will do the steps to reproduce the problem.
And yes, it is a problem of the browser: if I say to execute a command in one document it shouldn't execute the command in another one, maybe they fix it in IE8 or 9.
