Problem with FCKEditor plugin

If I enter the expression: x+y The generated image in the editor dialog appears correctly but when I insert in document it appears as: x+y Is there a bug in escaping the plus sign?

Hi. There is no error. The problem with '+' in equations is that some browsers and some editors convert '+' into spaces. I think its IE that triggered the neeed for this. We therefore need some method to identify a real '+' and hence this trick.

As you have probably researched, on the whole this isn't needed. Our latex renderer will work just as well with a '+', however if your integrating our editor into something like FCK then be sure to check how different browsers work.

But the point is the equation is rendered correctly in your fckdialog on Firefox, but not in the inserted image. Why the difference? I recognize you escaping the + but it baffles me since you are using the same code to generate both.

I just tried it with IE and it does the same thing so I do not believe it is a browser issue. My suspicion is that is the JS code for inserting the image that is not escaping the + properly when generating and inserting the image, not your renderer. I am surprised someone hasn't reported it early.

Hi. I have the same problem and I would like to know if you have an issue?

Ok, We need to reopen this issue and check again.

This problem is due to a line in the source code which replace "+" by "plus;" in the file "fckplugin.js".

It is resolved.

Hi,

To save me time tracking the error. Can you post the corrected line?

Thanks

It was in v2.6

The old line: eq = escape(sName[2].replace(/+/g,'+'));

The corrected line: eq = escape(sName[2]);
