[webkit-dev] Reporting FCKeditor related bugs

[David D. Kilzer]

Hi FredCK,

I'd recommend filing all of the bugs.  That way if someone else gets  
the notion to create a reduced test case or fix the bug, that's less  
work you'll have to do in the long run!

Please do a cursory search for existing bugs before filing new ones  
as well.  For example, "links are clickable in the editing area" may  
be similar to Bug 11297.  (It took me three searches to find that  
one, though, so don't spend all your time search for pre-existing  
bugs!)  It's better to have the bugs documented and later marked  
RESOLVED/DUPLICATE than to not have them documented at all.

Thanks!

Dave
