  • 0

I current have a need to have a contenteditable div tag inside an li tag. See the following sample:

<li class="le-item" title="Area 7">
   <div class="le-item-menu"><span class='le-item-close'>remove</span></div>
   <div contentEditable="true" class="le-item-text">
       <p>Test</p>
   </div>
</li>

I’m using the li tag in an unordered list so that I can take advantage of the jQuery UI sortable option. The issue I have is any contenteditable div tag within a li tag, acts differently. Instead of new paragraphs, I’m getting new div tags.

I’ve racked my brain over this and am considering just writing my own sortable feature and reverting back to all div’s. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Update: It appears this issue is specific to Firefox.
