Text don't wrap with standard editor in Firefox

Recommended Posts

As in the title.

It seems that using the latest versions of Firefox (I didn't tried with other browsers at the moment) the standard editor don't wrap the text.

It is a bit uncomfortable when you write quite long sentences.

Is it possible to fix the problem?

Thanks.

I didn't provided extra data because I thought that the problem was easily reproducible.

Here is a screenshot that shows the problem.

I use the last version of Firefox (36.0.4), but this problem appears surely with earlier versions of Firefox 36 or maybe even with Firefox 35.

Note that the Rich Editor don't show the issue.

Thanks, I'll give it a try to reproduce the coming days (need to install FF) and write a ticket to Invision.

Thanks to you.

I've just made another test, verifying that the problem happens with a clean Firefox profile too.

I'll try with another system as soon as possible.

Calabar and Boney, I also experiencing the same problem after upgrade the latest version of Firefox. I really hope this could resolve. Google Chrome is not that effective browser similar with IE.

Sorry for the bump, but I've been meaning to look into this myself for a while, and I finally bothered. The problem stems from the use of the "pre" value for the white-space CSS attribute.

The solution requires this rule:

.cke_skin_ips textarea { white-space: pre-wrap !important; }

This can be applied using an add-on such as Stylish or GreaseMonkey userscript (using GM_addStyle).

EDIT: working example userscript

An easier way to correct the problem is by clicking the lightswitch in the upper left corner of the posting menu. When you toggle into the BBCode editing mode, it wraps at the end of the whitespace.
