Description Alex Z. 2011-01-17 21:39:08 UTC
In the current IE9 beta, when using the IE9 standards document mode (set with the F12 developer tools), text replacement/insertion does not work correctly. In the wikitext at http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Mr.Z-man.sock/test&oldid=408465859 attempting to link the last word with the link dialog produces:

"... deserunt mollit anim id es[[laborum]]um."

The correct result is:

"... deserunt mollit anim id est [[laborum]]."

The problem seems to be related to the number of line breaks that occur before the text selection. On http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Mr.Z-man.sock/test&oldid=408466339 (with more line breaks), the same attempt produces:

"... deserunt mollit anim[[laborum]] laborum."

A similar result is seen when trying to insert text. When inserting a link to [[Foo]] after the last word, before the period, the result is:

"... deserunt mollit anim id est [[Foo]]laborum ."

Could be related to \r\n\ vs. \n.
Haven't investigated deeply yet.

Krinkle, do not spend too much time on this : browsers beta always have such bugs.

Alex> please make sure you report this bug to Microsoft.
Comment 3 Krinkle 2011-01-19 12:22:00 UTC
I got the impression it wasn't a beta but yeah IE9 is in beta (Alex even stated so in the opening line). 

/me removes CC.
