Created attachment 272201 [details] Sample page which shows how browsers sees HTML. Safari Version : 9.0.3 (11601.4.4) Other browsers tested: Chrome: Fail, version: 48.0.2564.116 m Firefox: OK IE: OK ---- What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Open attached sample in a browser. 2. Go to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTPS and copy first paragraph (from HTTPS to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTPS) 3. Paste it in editable element, click the "Get HTML" button and observe what HTML gets produced. ---- What is the expected result? The expected HTML is without   being inserted before closing and after opening span tag. If I go to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTPS and execute below in console everything seems to be in order console.log(document.getElementById('mw-content-text').getElementsByTagName('p')[0].innerHTML); Also viewing HTML with dev-tools doesn't show any   ---- What happens instead?

I have tested this on Windows 7 and Mac 10.11

I have made one mistake: copy first paragraph (from HTTPS to exchanged data)...

I am able to reproduce this across all browsers (Safari 16.2, Safari Technology Preview 160, Chrome Canary 111 and Firefox Nightly 110) by copying first paragraph and it shows 13 matches for " " across all browsers and all showing after start of span tag and also just before ending tag of span. Either I am not reproducing it right (which might be the cause) or this is consistent for all.
