Text and Links Jumping While Writing

[nesoor]

Describe the bug
When writing an email, the text jumps up and links (URLs) skip a line, even when copying and pasting a clean version of the email with no HTML or other code. This occurs when trying to place a link on the same line as the text.

To Reproduce

1. Set up an email signature.
2. Write a text and try to copy and paste an email address or link, attempting to place it on the same line as the text.

Expected behavior
The link should remain on the same line as the text and not jump up and down.

Same here.

I noticed that it starts to "misbehave" after one pastes something into the message body. Even when it is plain text, no formatting.
I took a look at the HTML, and for some reason, all spaces from source text get transformed to   and then the jumping occurs. Because it suddenly is one long junk of text.
This even happens when I cut a part of the message I'm just writing and paste it elsewhere. Again, all  
Very weird.

After removing the white space beneath the text "Signature" and beginning to write or copy-paste, everything appears to function correctly.

Mmh.... not for me. The   issue is what's causing it for me.
I started a brand-new message with nothing in it, no signature, no nothing. All fine until I paste something. Anything. Then the non-breaking spaces are introduced.

I have the exact same issue, except that when I insert a signature, it creates an automatic white space below it. If I remove that white space first and then start writing, everything works fine.

Sorry, haven't seen this until today. I'm afraid I still experience the jumping text. Sorry.
There's also a similar new issue #1054.
It seems they are related?

Have you downloaded the latest version?
The latest version fixed it for me.

Thanks!
Yes, I am on 2.27.2.

My issue is a little different, as it relates to introducing the   on copy and paste...

I understand what you mean, since I updated from 1.27.1. to 1.27.2 I have the same issues again.

I've tested to see what is happening:

1. Paste link
   

2. Backspace
   

I've traced back this issue to the solution for #962

It seems i accidentally used container.children and not container.childNodes.
The PR i made at Squire does use container.childNodes and does not have the problem.

This is great.
Thank you for all your hard work. 🙏
