so im trying to create an "AUTO" WYSIWYG real-time documentation generator for VS2019 Intellisense in javascript & jquery. so i got it working, but noticed after I type "Description : " ( a keyword ) into the text box, it converts fine but THEN if i try to delete it, it keeps on adding the <b> </b> tags when i simply want to delete it with backspace. heres the code / video
