IE7 - RTE problem rendering bulleted lists  (#10052)
Issue

Multiple lines of text entered into the RTE, separated by breaks <br /> are not being converted into a multiple bullet point list in IE7. Rather the whole block of multiple lines is indented and assigned one bullet. This makes formatting quite tiresome if you are in the habit of assigning your bullet points after the fact.

It also means if you enter a paragraph of text then start a new line with the intention of beginning a bulleted list, the bullet instead will be applied to the paragraph.

Firefox does not seem to have this problem. If, for example, seven separate lines of text are selected (all separated by breaks) and the ordered or unordered bullet list button is hit, it turns those lines into 7 bullet points.

Forgive me - but this is a very hard bug to describe!

I tried installing the latest version of TinyMCE 3.4.2.1, and IE7 behaves the same as before.  Firefx, however, behaves a bit differently.
The first time you ask it to make bulleted list, it behaves the same way as IE.  But if you toggle bulleted list off and on again, then it will highlight each BR terminated line with a bullet.

There is a bug posted on TinyMCE's site about this:

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2797503&group_id=103281&atid=635682

We'll need to monitor it and update TinyMCE when it is fixed.

This is a bug in the TinyMCE, so we'll have to wait for them.

If all else fails, we are still talking of removing the TinyMCE for the YUI Editor someday.
