Lines being deleted while selecting lines in CSS files

Post by WereCougar »

This is hard to explain, but "font" style lines are getting removed when selecting a style block. See if anyone can reproduce this:

1) Save this code into a .css file:

Code: Select all

body {
	padding: 0;
	margin: 0;
	font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
	font-size: 68.75%;
	height: 100%;
	background-color: #FFF;
}
2. Place your cursor before the "p" in "padding." Shift+Down 6 times until you have selected the closing "}" brace.

3. The "font-family" and "font-size" lines are removed from the "body" block.

I'm using 8.3.1.81. Pretty sure it didn't happen in the most recent version prior to this.

If I go into Options -> Preferences -> Document Types -> CSS and remove ".css" from the list, the color coding goes away (as expected), and the problem stops.

I wonder if, while editing a CSS file, the thing that validates/syntax highlights my code is finding something it doesn't like, it deletes it.
