Incorrect selection is picked
I am using chrome, often click is needed in a row below the actual symbol to be selected.
I have also seen instances where the click is 2 to 3 rows below the actual code section select for highlighting !
Can you give me an example file where this happens and which symbol in which row/column you are trying to select?
Image attached. The click was on Unlock(), but the "Describe" brought up a stack which on clicking highlights an unrelated data structure (1-2 lines above)
Thanks. The problem seems to be Windows/DOS line endings (\r\n) vs. Unix line endings (\n), which results in the calculation of the wrong byte offsets. When I converted a source file to Windows line endings I was able to reproduce the bug on a Mac. The problem itself is browser independent.
The browser loses the \r characters as soon as the source code is inserted via the .html() method:
var text = '1\r\n2\r\n3\r\n4\r\n5\r\n'; text.length == 15;
$('#src').html(text); $('#src').text().length == 10;
