Description Nils Jeisecke 2009-06-08 15:45:26 PDT 
Consider the following editable paragrahp 

   <div contenteditable="true">
    <p><span class="x">6</span>Try to click before the 'T', won't work.</p>
   </div>

with the following styles

          .x { display: inline; font-weight: bold; color: green; }
          .x:before { content: "("; }
          .x:after { content: ") "; }

you cannot click before the 'T'. 

Remove the :after style and it works.

Works fine. This has been likely fixed a while ago.
