[jira] [Commented] (GUACAMOLE-310) Multi-line text clipboard strips LF

["Michael Jumper (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-310?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16145647#comment-16145647 ] 

Michael Jumper commented on GUACAMOLE-310:
------------------------------------------

This seems to be due to some of the remaining changes from GUACAMOLE-55. Though much of those changes were reverted, the changes to the part of Guacamole that handles reading the local clipboard was not, and clipboard contents are still internally pasted into a content-editable <div>. The behavior of such <div>s is problematic, as each browser has its own way of handling pasting of both rich text and newlines, producing different sets of HTML tags. If newlines are not inserted at all (relying instead on <br> or <p> or <div>), whitespace can end up effectively stripped.
