           Summary: &t being added to the top of a textarea, and a > is
                    being replaced by a ;
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 522+ (nightly)
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Critical
          Priority: P2
         Component: Forms
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: riegel at clearimageonline.com

This one is hard to duplicate. I have a very fragile test case that I can
duplicate the problem on. I would be happy to show someone but it may be
difficult to demonstrate with out me stepping through the procedure.

The bug happens intermitently and isn't always caught by me. I use Safari to
edit web sites, and when this bug cropps up my page gets mangled. It doesn't
happen all of the time. This is a test case where I was able to get it to
happen over and over again.

Here is how to duplicate it.

1. go to http://www.clearimageonline.com/pages/start/login.html
  login as webkit, password: webkittestcase
2. Click the little icon next to snipshot.html
3. This opens a web editor right after the text "...it messes up frames" add a
space and save
4. What happens is &t gets added to the start of the text in the textarea, and
a > gets replaced with a ;
5. If you do a view source you can see that the sources does not contain these
spurious characters.
6. If you save again it will sve the spurious characters.
