** observed with 6/13/2000 Win32 build ** This problem was first observed in a mail composer window by a Japanese user but the same problem occurs with HTML editor. When you want to input a full-width (Zenkaku) space in Japanese on a new composer document at the beginning of a line, you cannot do this at all no matter how many times you press the Space. If you first enter some characters, then you can backtrack and enter a full-wodth space. Apparently some people do this quite often in Japanese and it is a very annoying problem.

interesting. I dont have this problem on the mac. It must be windows only. This may mean that it is a problem with layout (particularly the win text rendering code). I'll try to get a recent windows build together and check it out.

Yes. That seems to be true with Kotoeri. Kotoeri does not offer the option to choose between half-width and full-width spaces in Japanese. Under Windows IME from MS, there is such an option and the problem happens when the full-width space option is chosen. I have a different Mac Japanese IME (ATO12) and there if I turn on half-width option, Mac has a problem with inputting that without hitting the space bar twice.

Sujay, the origanal bug is not fixed, yet. Did you test 10/31 build to test this? This bug should not be verified until the bug 47015 is fixed.

Checked it on 05-21 Win32 trunk: NT-Ja: still has this problem. Enable IME-Ja, when try to input a full-width space at the beginning of a new line by press "space", the cursor will become a very small mark and it will positon at the beginning of line. This exists in both Mail and Composer. However, it not reproducible on WinME-Ja and Win98-Ja.

Yuying: can you repeat the test across the different wondows os's and add in this step: in the debug menu (use a debug build), choose "Dump Content Tree" after typing the full-width space. You will get data in the console window which represents the content tree for the document. If you could report back what that data is, and if it is different on NT-Ja vs. WinME-Ja and Win98-Ja, that might be very helpful.
This is no longer reproduciabe in Winnt 4.0J, either. I found the half-width problem - bug 83515.
