      Problem

      When using an HTML Macro on a Confluence page, it will break the User Interface. Part of the space tools won't be accessible and the display of the content will change/stretch.

      Environment

      Reproduce on Confluence version 7.6.2 and version 7.4.3

      Steps to Reproduce

      On a Confluence version 7.6.2 vanilla instance

      • Re-enable the HTML Macro plugin that is disabled by default
      • Create a new page and add an HTML Macro either using some code as per described in How to use JavaScript in Confluence or just add the content below in the HTML Macro. The <body> piece of code is what is specifically causing the issue:
        <html><head></head><body>Test HTML Body</body></html>
        

      Expected Results

      HTML Macro should not break the Confluence User Interface

      Actual Results

      HTML Macro is breaking part of the Confluence User Interface

      Workaround

      Using the HTML for Confluence plugin seems to offer a viable workaround for now.
