      Summary of Bug

      When using IE9, if a user copies and pastes multiple lines into the editor of Confluence 4.0.3, the line breaks will not work properly.

      This issue also happens on IE (Internet Explorer) 10, IE11.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Using IE9, start up Confluence 4.0.3 and create a page
      2. Paste the following : 
        hello this is foogie woogie
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Angry Nerds Documentation Home - Angry Nerds Documentation - Confluence Sandbox</title> <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EDGE"> <meta charset="UTF-8"> <!-- Deprecated since 3.4. To be removed in a future version of Confluence; use AJS.Confluence.getContextPath() --> <meta id="confluence-context-path" name="confluence-context-path" content=""> <meta id="confluence-base-url" name="confluence-base-url" content="http://sandbox.onconfluence.com"> <meta id="atlassian-token" name="atlassian-token" content="192782e79f2cc710c0ff54fb9d73b21b6eb4cb5b">

        into the editor

      3. The line breaks will not work properly.

      Findings

      This seems to only affect IE. When using IE9, this is the result of pasting those lines into the editor :

      I tested this using Firefox 8, and this was the result :
