Description Darshan Maiya CLA 2013-10-07 05:33:53 EDT
In the editor when the caret is positioned at the beginning of the line and is moved to the line above it or below it by pressing the arrow keys, then it is positioned incorrectly on the target line (usually one column forward than the source line).

Ex. If the caret is at position Line 1 : Col 1 and down arrow is pressed, then the caret moves to Line 2 : Col 2 instead of moving to Line 2 : Col 1.

Issue is very specific to IE 8.
