Description

In the following MediaWiki code, multiple colons cause the text to be indented more:

When I type the above in a MediaWiki+FCKeditor window with "WikiText" clicked, then I unclick "WikiText" to view WYSIWYG, it displays properly. However, when I click "WikiText" again, MediaWiki+FCKeditor messes up converting back to WikiText. I end up with this:

It does this sort of thing with multiple *'s (for bulleted lists) or #'s (for numbered lists) as well. It should allow the multiple :'s, *'s, and #'s to remain on one line to allow me to indent text by multiple levels.

We're experiencing this error as well (For #s). If we have a list of #'d items, saving with FCKeditor will destroy continuity and add carriage returns and ":" in between the original functioning wikitext code. The result basically being that instead of a list (1... 2... 3... 4...), we have (1... 1... 1... 1...).

Annoying -- we have to disable FCKeditor manually in LocalSettings to fix this. Another call for a way to disable it in the code while this application is still under development!
