            Bug ID: 72343
           Summary: Double unclosed table tags cause user input to be lost
                    on page preview
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Page editing

Using two unclosed <table> tags on a page sometimes causes MediaWiki to lose
user input on page preview.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Edit a page on enwiki and replace all the text in the edit window with the
following (without saving):

<table><table>Some text

2. Click on "Show preview". You might need to click a few times; this is an
intermittent behaviour. It usually took two or three times for me.

3. The text that we added disappears from the edit window, and the following
error is displayed: "Some parts of the edit form did not reach the server;
double-check that your edits are intact and try again."

This looks like it might be related to HTML Tidy and bug 65747, but I'm not
sure of the real cause.
