[BUG]Failed Assertion when URL is rendered
Describe the bug:
When including a link (<a href=""></a>) in the html content, I am getting an ambiguous bug:
'package:flutter/src/semantics/semantics.dart': Failed assertion: line 3023 pos 16: 'node.parent == null || !node.parent!.isPartOfNodeMerging || node.isMergedIntoParent': is not true.
When I remove the tag, everything functions normally. As soon as I add it back in, the bug returns.
HTML to reproduce the issue:
Today's lesson will be streamed via the following link:<div><br></div><div><a href="https://www.apple.com" rel="nofollow">Streaming Link</a><b><u></u></b><br></div>
Html widget configuration:
Widget buildEditable(){
return Container(
padding: const EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(8,5,8,5),
child: Center(
child: GestureDetector(
onTap: (){
_documentBloc.add(EditRichText(_node));
},
child: Container(
decoration: BoxDecoration(
color: Colors.white,
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(3.0),
boxShadow: <BoxShadow>[
BoxShadow(
color: Colors.black26,
offset: Offset(1, 2),
blurRadius: 1,
spreadRadius: 1)
],
),
child: Html(
data: _node.content,
shrinkWrap: true,
onLinkTap: (url, context, attributes, element) {
_documentBloc.add(EditRichText(_node));
},
)
),
)
)
);

Additional info:
I am rendering multiple Containers with html in each container in rows...not sure if that is a problem to have multiple instances in one page.
This is part of a MUCH larger widget tree that I didn't include due to size and complexity. I started recreating the widget tree in a test project to narrow down the problem and was able to find the perpetrator. For some reason, an html widget containing a link (a tag) when inside a standard flutter Material "Reorderable List View" will trigger the error. See the minimal reproducible example:
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_html/flutter_html.dart';
void main() {
runApp(MyApp());
}
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
// This widget is the root of your application.
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
title: 'Flutter Demo',
home: MyHomePage(),
);
}
}
class MyHomePage extends StatefulWidget {
MyHomePage({Key? key}) : super(key: key);
@override
_MyHomePageState createState() => _MyHomePageState();
}
class _MyHomePageState extends State<MyHomePage> with SingleTickerProviderStateMixin, WidgetsBindingObserver{
final ScrollController reorderScrollController = ScrollController();
Widget renderWidget(int index){
return Container(
key: ValueKey(index),
padding: const EdgeInsets.fromLTRB(8,5,8,5),
child: Html(
data: "Today's lesson will be streamed via the following link:<div><br></div><div><a href='https://www.apple.com'>Streaming Link</a><b><u></u></b><br></div>",
shrinkWrap: true,
onLinkTap: (url, context, attributes, element) {
},
)
);
}
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Container(
color: Colors.white,
child: ReorderableListView(
scrollController: reorderScrollController,
onReorder: (int oldIndex, int newIndex){
},
children: [
renderWidget(1),
],
),
);
}
}

Thanks for the minimal reproducible example. I'll look into this. Clever app idea too, brother 😉
After some investigation, I've had to forward this issue onto the Flutter team, as it turns out to be an issue with Flutter itself.
You can follow https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/126840 for updates.
This issue has been fixed in the Flutter master branch. Since the assertion doesn't cause a crash and since flutter_html is not at fault, I'm closing this.
