Color selection spans no longer nest inside links

[markel]

Tested in most recent nightly (as of 10/13/10).

When adding a text color to a link, the span tags are placed outside the link, like this:

<span style="color: #339966;"><a href="http://wordpress.org/">link</a></span>

The previous behavior (confirmed in 2.9.2) was to nest the span tags within the link, like this:

<a href="http://wordpress.org/"><span style="color: #339966;">link</span></a>

Users can no longer influence the color of a link using only the Visual Editor.

Steps to reproduce/test against other versions:

1. Add some text.
2. Make it into a link using the Visual Editor.
3. Select the text again and select a color for it using the Visual Editor.

Still an issue.

Request for help sent upstream.

Reopening to note that TinyMCE 3.3.9.3 final was released yesterday.

Do we want to update to that or are we staying with our 3.3.9.3-dev?

Thanks for the heads up. I just got the notification this morning.

Will inspect the changes (if any) and handle today.

There were no additional changes. We're running 3.3.9.3 final.
