Symptoms

When editing an article, if you highlight something and then start typing (replacing that character or set of characters with something else), you get a Javascript error. We had this problem on version 4.2.13, and after upgrading to version 4.3.

Cause

It is caused when you select content and type Enter. There's a Char 13 handler triggered on keypress, where getTextFromPreviousSiblingTextNodes(range) doesn't expect the range to select several characters (it expects a caret).

Affected Browsers:

• Chrome
• IE
• Mozilla
  Affects version:

• 4.3
• 4.2

 

Resolution

This was fixed in Version 4.3.7 of Confluence, and the bug report follows as CONFDEV-10170 - Getting issue details... STATUS
