Thank you for the prompt reply.

I just checked the status of work item #1020 and found that it hasn’t been solved yet. I’ll let you know when the pre-release hotfix is ready to be tested.

Hi Yudi,

Unfortunately we recently finished a big project to take our web application out of quirks mode, so your workaround is not a good option for us. Thanks for submitting our issue, we will stand by for an update.

The information about browser version really helps to reproduce the issue on my local end.

I have submitted this issue to WebTextEditor development team as work item #1020. I will let you know any news I heard from the team regarding work item #1020.

I also would like to add something that I found during my attempt to reproduce the issue. The issue is not persisting when IE 9 is open in quirk mode. As a workaround, you might try to add following line into the <head> tag of your page in order to have the page open in quirk mode (by default).

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=5" />

Oh and one other point, the browser is running in "IE9 Standards" document mode, in case that helps.

Hi Martin. Thanks for looking into this for me. I've created a video showing the issue, which is attached.

Here is the information about my environment:

Doctype is XHTML 1.0 Transitional
Browser is IE9 9.0.8112.16421
WebTextEditor 1.0.1000.33
Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit

Here is the markup for the control, very simple:

				<IS:WebTextEditor 
					runat=server 
					id=wteEditor 
					Height=300px 
					DefaultStyleMode=ElegantBlackStyle>
				</IS:WebTextEditor>

Just to double-check, is there any way to run the WebTextEditor so that it will not change the HTML at all?

Thanks for your help!

Hello,

I'm using WebTextEditor 1.0.1000.33 but I couldn't replicate your issue on my end. It works just fine with the line break tag.

I have attached a video recording that shows on how I follow your steps and the error just doesn't occur. When I enter , it will be replaced with instead . I'm running the project in IE9 browser.

Did I miss something here?

Thank you.

Regards,
-Martin-

Version: 1.0.1000.33 (the hotfix you sent us in a previous thread). Also observed with .23.

Steps to reproduce:

given a WebTextEditor with no text in it, switch to "HTML" mode.
Enter a line break tag - you can use " " or " "
Switch to "Design" mode.
Switch back to "HTML" mode.

Expected: Best case, should see the same HTML that was entered. Worst case, at least something equivalent.

Actual: The " " or " " tag is replaced with " ". This it not valid HTML, and in browsers it gets rendered as two line breaks.

More: If you switch back and forth between "Design" and "HTML" some more, the number of line breaks will double every time.

We've also noticed that the tool inserts a "<tbody>" element into tables, and we're pretty sure it makes other changes as well. Is there any way to run the WebTextEditor so that it just doesn't change the HTML that you type in?

Thanks for your help!
