After the latest windows 10 update to 1809, text selection on modal window is selecting text on the parent window (background). Edge version - 44.17763.1.0 EdgeHTML 18.17763

This is working in chrome and older versions of Edge browser.enter image description here

I tested this demo in my Edge 44.18362.1.0, EdgeHTML 18.18362. It will not select the parent window when I select text on modal window. The result is like below:

The latest version of windows 10 is 1903. You could update to the latest version of windows 10 and the Edge will also be updated and then try it again.

  • This is still an issue in Microsoft Edge. Opened a ticket with Microsoft, they are investigating the root cause. https://www.w3schools.com/code/tryit.asp?filename=G8C1MH37OPNY – Krishna Santosh Nidri Sep 25 '19 at 17:45

    I reproduce the issue with the example you provided. I find that the issue occurs when the modal dialog is in an iframe. Thank you for submitting the feedback to Microsoft regarding this issue. – Yu Zhou Sep 26 '19 at 07:47
  • @KrishnaSantoshNidri do you have any update on this issue? Can you share the link to the bug report? – G.G. Feb 18 '20 at 16:32
  • Microsoft said they identified the issue and have a fix. However, they are not going to ship since the old edge is deprecated. They suggested us to move to new chromium based edge. – Krishna Santosh Nidri Feb 19 '20 at 15:24
