This bug only occurs in Firefox. Underlined texts in a page from an imported Word doc results in a strange behavior in Firefox.
Steps to reproduce
- Import the Word document test.doc
into Confluence - Edit the page
- Select/highlight the NOTE: text and then delete it
Result: The whole sentence is underlined as a result of the deletion.
Reason
When a Word document is imported into Confluence, any underlined texts are converted into the following HTML:
<span style="text-decoration: underline;">underlined text</span>
It should be converted using <u> tag for underline, like this:
<u>underlined text</u>
Workaround
Highlight/select the underlined text, click the "Underline" style button in the toolbar (Ctrl+U) to clear the underline. Click the button again to make the underline appears. Deleting the text will not result in an above scenario.

added a comment - I'm getting underlining on several paragraphs when using the Word macro on confluence. There's no underlined text in the document. In fact if I remove all the formatting in the document and post it to confluence, the entire document is now underlined!
I've tried creating a new document from scratch and rebuilding my formatting from there, but there's something causing underlining in confluence.

Given the thousands of other issues we have open that are more highly requested, we won't be able to address this issue in the foreseeable future. Instead we will focus on bugs with a higher impact, and more votes.
Thanks for taking the time to raise this issue. As you are no doubt aware this issue has been on our backlog for some time now with very little movement.
I'm going to close this to set expectations so the issue doesn't stay open for years with few updates. If demand for this picks up, we will reopen the issue.
