Created attachment 8576320 A more comprehensive text The more conservative approach would be not to change the selection behaviour but to maintain/re-establish the correct "type in state" after the click. That is what IE does: The DIV is selected, but typing continues in the "correct" font, see comment #54. Would you prefer this approach?
One could argue that clicking 10cm or 4" away from the text to the right should not select the text. On the other hand, if no <br> follows, then you can click far to the right and the text is still selected. Also for text in <p></p> you can click far to the right and still select the text. Note that links are not followed, even though the text is selected. That's the last example. Personally I would fire any web designer who creates websites for one browser alone and who creates special code for somewhat far-fetched cases of clicking a text. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/584632 Title: composer changes font mid email Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: Confirmed Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: thunderbird As I'm typing my emails in Thunderbird, I can see what appears to be a font size change on screen, normally in the second line of text. The second line appear smaller than the first. It's barely perceptible, so half them time I think I am imagining it. Well, I've started Bccing to myself to check, and the emails I am receiving from myself are not only a different size, they're also a different font. Composer starts in some default serif, and by the second line is sans. I'd bee glad to email someone viz thunderbird, and also send along a screenshot of how it looks while I am typing. Thanks.
