FWIW,
I can not recreate this at all on a Mac. When you move back to CodeView after following your procedure you see exactly what you would expect to see just the

<p>ok</p>

.

If you (or anyone with Windows) can repeatedly generate a crash of Sigil please enable the debugger (if you know how) to generate a backtrace so that we have some idea of where the Windows related bug may be happening.

DiapDealer when you get a few free moments will you take a look at this? It really does appear to be a Windows only bug (Qt related?).

Step-by-step to crash:
1. New file
2. In Code View write "ok"

<p>ok</p>

3. Select letter "k".
4. Press Ctrl-I or press "Italic" button from toolbar (to enable italic)

<p>o<i>k</i></p>

5. Go to Book View (F9 or Book View button).
6. Select italic letter "k" only.
7. Press Ctrl-I or press "Italic" button from toolbar (to disable italic)
8. Try back to Code View (F11 or Code View button).

Last point causes a crash every time.
