Description Mike.lifeguard 2010-05-12 02:41:58 UTC
Using the triple-click to highlight a whole line of text results in grabbing the page title plus a newline at the end. That newline shouldn't be there. It removes the one easy way to highlight the article title for copy-pasting, so should be considered an actual regression in usability.

i tried and could not duplicate this behavior, so i suspect
it is browser-dependent.

So it is. The browser is Chrome - odd that it doesn't grab the newline on monobook though :\

Can't see why this would happen, the HTML is the same in both skins.

I'm sorry, it is the same for both skins, I must be hallucinating.
