It happens in RTL mode when you mix Hebrew text with numbers or with English text.

It happens only in Firefox. No problem with Chrome or IE browsers for example.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Type some Hebrew text without hitting the "enter" key. like שנה טובה 

  Gmail correctly identifies the text as being from an RTL language and aligns it to the right (RTL mode)

2. At the end of the Hebrew text type some English text (or some numbers ). Happy new year January 2015 

  So you end up with a line with  "Happy new year January 2015 שנה טובה"

3. Start clicking the Backspace key. After a 3-6 clicks the backspace is not responding. (same bad behavior with the right and left navigation keys).

Tested in a new/fresh profile. Also tried it with a different gmail account and got same problems. Firefox 34 Win 7 x64

You can try to experiment with these two prefs on the about:config page;

@cor-el, thank you for your answer. I'll try it as soon as I have time but have you tried my STR ? If so what were the results ?

Thanks in advance.

4 months have passed and it seems that the problem is gone :)

I can't reproduce the problem when tested on a new/fresh Firefox 38 profile.

Either google fixed Gmail or it's the new Firefox version.

So no need to change any prefs in the about:config

@cor-el, Anyway thanks a lot. Your answer was helpful.
