Description Mark Summerfield 2011-12-19 03:40:29 UTC
Sometimes the Page::textList() method returns the text boxes out of order when one or more tables are present (esp. if the page has 2 or more columns).

For example:

blah 1     blah 4
blah 2     Table 2
Table 1    blah 5
blah 3

The order I expect is:

blah 1, blah 2, Table 1, blah 3, blah 4, Table 2, blah 5

But the order I (sometimes) get is:

blah 1, blah 2, Table 1, blah 3, Table 2, blah 4, blah 5

I've tried with with 0.16 and 0.18.4.
