Confluence 4.2.8, reproduced with 4.2.4 & 4.3+ (stable and master) as well.
Browser: Chrome 20.*
Confluence editor freezes under Chrome when pasting modified status macro to an occupied table cell. The problem does not affect FireFox and Internet Explorer.
Error occurs regardless of table type (headered or non headered)
Steps to reproduce:
- Create a new page, add a 1x2 table (from the toolbar NOT autocomplete)
- Add status macro to the top cell, then copy it to bottom cell
- Press the up arrow key to move the cursor back into the top cell
- Press the down arrow key to move the cursor into the second cell, before the status macro
- Paste with cmd+v
- Editor freezes

[CONFSERVER-26019] Editor freezes when moving down with cursor and pasting status macro

added a comment - Are there any updates on this. It would be useful to know when a fix is scheduled for release as this is locking us into version 4.04 and we cant upgrade beyond because of the number of key Confluence users that use Chrome.

Hi Rob,
We've looked into this issue and it seems it's a problem with core TinyMCE, so a fix is not likely to make it into a 4.2.x release.
The steps to reproduce this are quite specific though, and, while certainly not ideal, the workaround does seem to be to use the mouse to position the cursor in the table cell rather than the arrow keys. However, is this something that you're coming across frequently? If not I'd urge you to reconsider the blocker status you've given this issue, or alternatively wait for a 4.3 release.
Cheers,
Sam.
