Created attachment 7379 [details] Wiki_2010-05-18_LinkCreate.pdf Reporting against Babaco Release : r66321 Tested link :http://prototype.wikimedia.org/en.wikipedia.org/Main_Page Steps to Reproduce :: 1) Select a word from the text and highlight 2) Click on link button from the tool bar 3) Click on insert 4) Preview the changes. <<the link is extended to the word next to the selected. This was not selected for the link initially.>> Expected Outcome:: Only the text highlighted should contain the link. Test Environment:: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.8) Gecko/20100202 Firefox/3.5.8 Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US) AppleWebKit/532.5 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/4.1.249.1064 Safari/532.5 Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.1; Trident/4.0; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; Media Center PC 6.0; InfoPath.3) Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.4506.2152; .NET CLR 3.5.30729)
Removing reference to "Search and Replace" from summary, I fail to see how S&R is related at all. This is a very interesting mix between IE including the trailing space in the selection and [[Foo ]]bar being interpreted as [[Foo bar|Foo]] due to the link trail. The best fix is probably to make the link dialog smart so it inserts [[Foo]]<SPACE> when it really wants to insert [[Foo<SPACE>]]
Fixed in r67543.
