Tags Incorrectly Added to Plain Text in Chrome - Interaction Between Umbraco and Tiny MCE

This problem appears w/Chrome when its used to input text in Umbraco using TinyMCE.  Other have reported the problem.

The problem does not occur when you use the  http://www.tinymce.com/tryit/full.php tester in the same version of Chrome so may be because Umbraco is using an older version of Tiny.

See:

• I can confirm this - for some reason Chrome actually wraps the entire pasted text in a <pre> tag so you get this mark-up:

  <pre>This is a paragraph<br />This is a paragraph<br />This is a paragraph</pre>

  Glad someone else has confirmed it - thanks Dan.

  But if you go to http://www.tinymce.com/tryit/full.php, it doesn't happen - so I don't think it's something to do with Chrome entirely. I think the version of TinyMCE in Umbraco does something which causes it to happen. So there must be a way around it.

  Anyone have any ideas?
