Issue type	Minor issue (breaks specific functionality)
Title	WYSIWYG editor fails to render some comcode elements properly after editing comcode page
Status	Closed (cannot reproduce)
Handling member	Chris Graham
Addon	core
Description	Sometimes in the WYSIWYG editor, if a comcode page contains comcode elements, such as a box tag, the initial rendering and saving of the tag will work and display properly. However, if you later go back to edit that comcode page, the WYSIWYG editor will fail to correctly parse that comcode element, essentially messing up your page unless you keep editing those elements every time you edit the page.
Steps to reproduce
Additional information	This issue also happens sometimes with HTML parameters
Funded?	No

I'll need a reproduction case. If you can leave a page on your site that does this and point me to it, I can take a look.

It may be a browser and copy/paste issue actually. Some of the places I tried to reproduce on another computer and couldn't. However, say if I copy some text from the WYSIWYG and want to paste it on a box tag, it'll place it outside the box instead of in the box, even though my cursor was in the box.

That wouldn't surprise me. There's not much we can do to improve WYSIWYG at this point, other than joining CKEditor development or browser development - so unless there's a reproducable problematic case, I'll leave this as unfixable.
