In Message composition, when the editor is initialized in plain text mode, pressing <return> doens't generate a new line. The problem is only a display matter. Later when I send the message, I get all the newline correctly. However, in HTML mode it works.

update typo in the summary

Changed to Joe Francis, milestone set to M6

As I am currently working on HTML support, message compose now initialize editor in HTML mode. You would have to modify the java script function ComposeMessage() in messenger/commandglue.js to have the problem again: replace [,editorType=html"] by [,editorType=text"]

sounds like a layout problem. i'll confirm that the editor is doing the right thing and hand off to layout if so.

moving non-crashers to M7

Buster, passing off these two bugs (6059, 6242) to you as previously discussed. These are both candidates for non-editor bugs that could use some triage by a layout savvy person.

move to M8 per 6/15/99 meeting

moved to M8. Still trying to find an owner. This is just a display problem, but a fairly important one.

assigned to simon. I think this is a caret drawing bug. The caret stays on the line above, instead of jumping to the newly created line below. It looks like selection is getting incremented properly.

Works fine for me, now the display is ok but the output replaces return by a space, this problem has been reported as bug #9470.

Based on ducarroz's report, marking fixed. Note that this bug may also relate to bug 10683

works fine in editor. Lisa can you have someone try it out in message compose? thanks! you can mark it verified-fixed afterwards...or let me know and I'll do it...

Using 19990816M9 builds on win98, mac and linux, testing the New Msg window in Plain text mode this works, however with win98 and mac, a big carat is left in each of the blank lines during compose (see bug 10683). Also note Mac Crashes when trying to send a message using this scenario, still investigating the crash and will log a separte bug. This bug is verified.
