HTML notebook: Backspace sometimes deletes multiple characters

[rhstanton]

Using IPython 0.13 on both OS X and Windows, I've noticed that on some occasions, when editing text in a code cell in the HTML notbook, trying to delete the last character using the usual backspace or delete key results in multiple characters being deleted.

Here's an example (enclosed in quotes, as it seems the extra spaces at the end of the line may be relevant):

"logDeltas = linspace(-10.0,4,200) # log(Delta) values for plots "

If I put the cursor immediately ater the 4 and press backspace/delete, not only the 4 but also the preceding ".0," are deleted.

If I delete the extra spaces after the comment and try again, deletion seems to work normally.

This should have been close by #2190 as a side effect.

Could you try with the 0.13.1 branch or current master ?

and it should be related to #1464

That looks the same. Thanks.

Updating my installation solved the problem. Thanks.

Great.
Closing then.
