Hi,

After doing a quick check, this problem has existed for at least a couple of 
versions, but I just noticed it.

I've only checked on a Mac.
When a new field is created it appears to be empty but the htmlText of the field is 
<p></p>.
The number of lines reported for the field is 0.
The text of the field is empty but the htmlText of the field is not.
If you set the htmlText of the field to empty then test if the htmlText of the 
field is empty it is reported as false.
Are others seeing this and is it a bug?
since <p></p> is in fact the HTML equivalent to "empty/no text" I would not 
consider this a bug :-)

Just tested this in both LC 6.6 and 4.5; and the result is just the same:

set up 2 fields, "f1" and "f2" and a button with this script:

on mouseUp
   put the htmlText of fld "f1" into fld "f2"
end mouseUp

and you end up, indeed, with <p>/</p>
in field "f2"

____________________________

what is interesting is that if you run this in the Message box:

put empty into fld "f1"

the htmlText of fld "f1" is still <p></p>

------------------------------------

Which would argue that RunRev have set that like that intentionally.

I agree with Klaus!
