[Bug 28578] New: Editing a wiki page strips out carriage returns from all preformatted text on that page
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28578 Bug #: 28578 Summary: Editing a wiki page strips out carriage returns from all preformatted text on that page Product: WineHQ.org Version: unspecified Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: www-unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: dimesio(a)earthlink.net Classification: Unclassified This most recently happened with the Regression Testing page (bug 28575), but I've seen it before on other pages: carriage returns are removed from preformatted text, even if that part is not edited directly, and the preformatted text turns into an unreadable mess. It used to be possible to avoid this by staying in GUI mode and not previewing, but that seems to no longer work. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

This makes editing wiki pages that contain a lot of preformatted sections (e.g., the FAQ and RegressionTesting) very difficult: every time you edit those pages you have to go into text mode and manually put back every single carriage return in every preformatted section on the page. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Actually it would be more than time to perform an upgrade from the antediluvian moinmoin wiki platform version currently used. Maybe even another platform since, for instance, moinmoin doesn't allow previewing of the current changes only (as opposed to full page preview), which can be really annoying for long pages (e.g. the FAQ). Something like wikipedia's "view my changes" would be quite helpful. Of course, that's easier said than done and there may be some glitches in the transition... -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

All I did was open the page in Edit mode, then click "Save changes"--I didn't even MAKE any changes, but the preformatted sections that have more than one line are now a mess. I've left it that way for you to see; it will need to be reverted shortly. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

This can be tested on the Wiki Sand Box page. There's a preformatted section under Formatting that reads preformatted some more and some more lines too The line break is stripped out when I save the page, even if I have made no edits. Not only that, but everything on that page below IRC Log Test is also gone. As for other browsers, Opera, Chrome, Chromium, and Konqueror all show raw text in the edit window when I try to edit any page, and trying to preview or save (even if I made no actual changes) from any of these browsers results in the same error message: ExpatError: mismatched tag: line 389, column 1341 (see dump in /var/www/wine/wiki/data/expaterror.log) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Created attachment 45491 [details] Chrome edit wiki screenshot
Here's what I see when I try to edit the wiki sandbox page in Chrome 28.0.1500.71 on openSUSE 12.3. If I click any of the buttons at the top except Cancel I get the same python error as in Opera.
Can't reproduce in Chromium 28.0.1500.71, Opera 12.16, Firefox 23 (did also try with elinks but can't edit the text ;) ) Do you have the same issue with all of your browsers? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

The GUI editor mostly works in Firefox and SeaMonkey, except for the problem of stripping out carriage returns in preformatted text when I save, and as I've now discovered, dropping tables. The tables at the bottom of the wiki sandbox page don't display in the GUI editor--I'll post a screenshot of that. I tested this on two distros (openSUSE and Linux Mint), installed on different machines. Since the two of you can't reproduce this: is there something (library, extension) you can think of that a developer would normally have installed on their system (and take for granted) that a non-developer might not? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

After fiddling with the editor a little on the WikiSandBox, it's specifically a problem in the GUI editor so as long as you stick to the text editor you'll be OK. It looks like in the version of MoinMoin (1.5) we're using, the GUI editor reads in carriage returns to display everything correctly, but then only keeps HTML/macro line breaks. Definitely not a great moment in usability: http://moinmo.in/MoinMoinBugs/GuiEditorLineBreak. I think the reason the preview cuts off at the IRC section is because IRC logs have their own parser that especially freaks out when it can't find newlines. That's when the preview function throws in the towel. For a moment I worried it was something to do with our CSS white-space settings in "pre" blocks, but we definitely have it set to keep line breaks. So long story short, it looks like as long as we're on MoinMoin v1.5, we're stuck with either the text editor or having to redo every line break in the GUI. I don't know if Dimi Paun's subscribed to this report with a current email address, but he's the one to contact about upgrading MoinMoin. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

(Hitting self in head.) My account was set to default to GUI mode, so the bug was triggered as soon as I opened the editor. It didn't occur to me until Dan denied knowledge of the existence of a GUI editor that I could change that. I did, and that does enable me to avoid the carriage return bug at the expense of not being able to see what the page will look like until it's saved. (Still a bug, but easier to live with). It also turns out to be the reason editing was completely broken for me in Chrome, Opera, etc. The text editor does work in those browsers if you start in text mode, but the GUI editor is so broken you can't switch to text mode once you're in it. I'm editing the summary and setting this to UPSTREAM based on comment 12.

It does now, with my account set to open in text mode (should have actually tested more thoroughly before I posted). I remember in the past thinking it triggered the carriage return bug, but in retrospect, it was probably opening in the GUI editor that was doing it. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
