Hi there

I am facing problem when I try to localize a KB in my local language (Bengali). The problem is when I start typing the cursor go other side. When I try to delete by selecting some text, it remove other text also. But if I toggle off the syntax highlighting it works fine. I am attaching a video that I record from my PC.

Thanks Noor vai for reporting this bug. I can confirm that it doesn't only happens on SuMo. 
I also happens on http://stackedit.io/ and also on github's online code editor. It may create the same problem on other online code editor. 

This problem only happens when we use firefox. If I use chrome, I don't face this issue.

Rabbi thanks for the update. Can you screencast a video like me using chrome?

Sorry, unfortunately I have found the same issue in chrome now. But I am pretty much sure that my previous chrome version didn't produced that issue.

This might be an issue with ACE, I'm not sure we can do much about it. Ricky? Maybe we are using an outdated version and could update, or something else?

Hey Kadir

Thanks for your comment. Do you mean outdated firefox? If it is, I am using nightly, and we are facing this problem from the starting of syntax highlighter.

Yeah, this is probably a bug in ACE. see http://ace.c9.io/#nav=about 

Ashickur, can you test the ace demo out on their site and see if you have the same problems?

We should try to update ACE at some point.

Hey Ricky,

I check there demo from here [0] using the HTML document. For Bengali the problem remain same. But when I try to edit or delete English codes it is working fine.

Sounds like this an upstream bug in Ace. Ashickur, can you file an issue against Ace for this? https://github.com/ajaxorg/ace/issues/new
