Package: iceweasel Version: 43.0.4-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate *** * What led up to the situation? I tried to insert a non-breaking space in a form on a web page. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? I first tried using the usual key combination I use to insert such non-breaking space - this is how I do it in both LibreOffice and vim - and, since it did not work, I then tried copying and pasting the character from LibreOffice (since LO grey out non-breaking spaces I'm pretty sure this was not a simple space). * What was the outcome of this action? The non-breaking space is converted to simple space as soon it is inserted/pasted. * What outcome did you expect instead? I expected the non-breaking space would get inserted as such. This is the precise series of operations I made to be sure; wherever the <nbsp> sequences appears below, please substitute the unicode U+0040 character coded in utf-8 as "c2 a0" since I use the locale fr_FR.utf8: 1. type M<nbsp>M in Libreoffice (the space looks greyed out) 2. select the 3 characters with the mouse and Ctrl-C them 3. click in a textarea in Iceweasel then Ctrl-V 4. select the 3 letters in the textarea and Ctrl-C them 5. open vim in some terminal emulator then paste with Ctrl-V 6. save the resulting file as out1.txt 7. reselect the 3 characters in LibreOffice as in 2. 8. open vim in some terminal emulator as in 5. 9. save the resulting file as out2.txt 10. run "od -c" on both files: out1.txt : 0000000 m m out2.txt : 0000000 m 302 240 m Note that in order to avoid any problem with possible javascript side-effect in the original use case (a TinyMCE editor running in some CMS), I reproduced the problem with a new HTML file I created with just a pair of opening and closing textarea tags in it. In order to avoid an underlying library problem, I pasted this nbsp character in different application with no problem : - vim (running in different terminal emulators), - leafpad - libreoffice itself, most evidently Yet, I just noticed that the same problem exhibits in Icedove, so this bug might be reaffected to some underlying component.
