Highlighting portions of large font text (24 in this case) and then selecting various properties like text/background color, justification, doesn't work properly. Highlighting just one word in a sentence and applying a style, affects the whole line. In the following sentence I highlighted one word and here's what the HTML looks like:

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,cursive;"><span style="background-color: rgb(0, 128, 0);"><span style="color: rgb(128, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Selling Your Property</span></span></span></span></p>

Styles are applied to the entire sentence. This doesn't happen when using the default font size.

Bold, Italics, and underling work ok.

Using Acquia Marina theme and selected "CKEditor default" for Editor CSS.

Same problems in Garland theme.

Occurs with FF-3.5.5, Opera 10.01. However, IE-8 does not exhibit this problem - the source code is completely different and correct.

Also, applying "paragraph format" selectively with highlighting affects the entire document with varying odd behaviors in different browsers.

Occurs in FF-3.5.5, Opera 10.1, IE-8.

I have the carriage return behavior defaulting to <br> rather than <p>, however the source code shows format tags before and after every paragraph.

It looks to me like a bug in CKEditor.

@druplicate - If you can reproduce it here:
http://ckeditor.com/demo
then please report this error in CKEditor bug tracker:
http://dev.fckeditor.net/
and close this issue pointing to the ticket you have created.

Thanks in advance!
