AEM Inline Editor adds "span" tag to text with inline styles when removing a line break

When editing a text component using the inline rich text editor, if I delete a line break (merged 2 paragraphs into one) and then save and close the inline rich text editor, the next time I open that same text component and view its source(in the config editor), a 'span' tag gets added around the paragraph with a lot of unnecessary stylings which I don't want.

@amohite hi,

 

I tried performing the same steps on RTE locally. For me it is working fine when I merged the two paras, there are no extra spans added at all. 

 

I am using AEM 6.5.5

resourceType :: cq/gui/components/authoring/dialog/richtext

Can you check you dont have any custom code changing the data before saving ?

Thanks,

Milind

    Hi @amohite 

     

    A couple of quick questions:

    • What's your AEM version
    • What's your core component version
    • Are you seeing any errors in the console?
    • Are you seeing any issues in the logs?
    • Can you check how the data is saved in the JCR once the component is saved?
    • Can you check if there is any custom code written for your RTE?

    Thanks,

    Kiran Vedantam.

      I have tested on AEM 6.5.12 and We.retail Text component but no span tag has been added.

       

      Please share .content.xml of your text component.

        Like removing the P tag, you can also remove the Span tag. https://sourcedcode.com/blog/aem/aem-richtext-remove-p-tag-removesingleparagraphcontainer-for-touch-ui
