Description (last modified by SergeyBiryukov)

In post editor, when trying to delete an image using keyboard delete button it does not work. Pressing delete on image takes back to previous page. Happens in mac os/ chrome 21.

Steps to reproduce

  • Create or edit a post
  • Switch to the Visual Editor
  • Upload and insert an image into the post
  • Move focus away from the editor (i.e. click anywhere outside the editor)
  • Click on the inserted image
  • Press "Delete"
  • The image is not deleted and instead the user is navigated back to the previous page.

You mean the "Backspace" key or a real "Delete" key (above the arrow keys on a full size keyboard)?

Couldn't reproduce this with the backspace key, Chrome 21.0.1180.79, MacOS 10.7.4. Do the "Edit" and "Delete" buttons pop up when you click on the image?

This sounds like a specific browser issue with contenteditable mode, i.e. the browser interprets the delete key as a shortcut to navigate to the previous page instead of a keystroke in the editable area. Perhaps it was fixed in never browser version?

No reporter feedback in 4 months, closing as worksforme. Feel free to reopen with more information.
