Ctrl+A and line break on IE

[m0x72]

Hey there,

after selecting and deleting all text inside the editor with Ctrl+A, line breaks will get messed up on (seemingly) all IE Versions. (Tested on IE11, and "emualted" IE 10, 9 and 8 versions via Dev Tools)

On subsequent typing, pressing enter will cause new paragraphs instead of line breaks ( br ).
Selecting and deleting the (visible) text with the mouse or shift + arrow keys works just as expected.

Can someone reproduce/confirm that?

(Ctrl+A works fine in Chrome/Firefox of course ;) )

I can replicate this in IE11. However it is worth pointing out that it does not occur in IE8-11, at least not for me when testing using the actual installed versions in a VM. Emulation mode is pretty unreliable so that could be why you were able to replicate it in emulated mode, @m0x72.

Also worth pointing out is that this project doesn't appear to be maintained any more, so this probably won't achieve much.

Thanks for testing either way though @mrkipling! Good to know.

Not a problem. I actually stumbled across this after doing battle with WYSIHTML5 for the best part of a week.

I've seen things. Terrible things...
