I am having the same issue but when using he ordered list and unordered list buttons when the editor is used in angular. Any ideas on the issue?

I get the same issue. You can reproduce the issue with this sample code. When click on the text to edit, the cursor is set to start or end of the text (cannot set the cursor to a specify position using mouse click). Use left/right arrow to move the cursor and you will see the error message in console.

<a href="#"><span class="editable">This is link</span></a>
<script>var editor = new MediumEditor('.editable');</script>

I've been getting this issue with various interactions when using Medium Editor inside Angular 2 on Firefox.

[codiak]

For reference, after simply typing, this error looks like:
"EXCEPTION: [Exception... "Failure" nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: http://**********/main.bundle.js :: handleKeyup :: line 12390" data: no]"

Just to re-iterate, this is only when used inside Angular 2 on Firefox.

So, I was able to resolve this on: https://github.com/codiak/angular2-medium-editor

When using Angular 2 in Firefox, the element that Medium Editor is applied on needs to be separate from anything Angular is trying to bind an input or output to.

At least in the case of Angular 2, I wouldn't say this is a Medium Editor bug, more of a conflict between the two (which only occurs in Firefox!).
