BUG MIGRATED FROM SOURCEFORGE http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=969549&group_id=34373&atid=411192 Originally submitted by Nobody/Anonymous - nobody 2004-06-09 14:16 See http://meta.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki_feature_requests_and_bug_reports#TeX_Markup_Bug about http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Mathematics#Typesetting_of_mathematical_formulas. Now `e' and `-x' are placed properly, but `2' is placed erroneously. The HTML produced is: <tbody><tr align="center" valign="bottom"> <td></td> <td></td> </tr> <tr align="center"> <td><font size="+2"></font></td> <td><i>e</i> <sup>- <i>x</i></sup>2 <i>d</i><i>x</i></td> </tr> <tr align="center" valign="top"> <td>0</td> <td></td> </tr> </tbody> where instead of <sup>, a </sup> is produced before the `2.' ------------------------- Additional comments ------------------------ Date: 2004-06-09 14:17 Sender: nobody Logged In: NO Oops, forgot to include: bug submitted by Paddu (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Paddu). ------------------------------------------------- Date: 2004-08-07 04:08 Sender: SF user vibber Put easier to reach sample at: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Sandbox/TeX_bits

It would be really nice if someone could provide a sample TeX input string that produces the bug. Please don't link to wiki pages because they tend to change.
Created attachment 11 [details] Simplified test case Here's the TeX bit: <math>a^{b^c}</math> As you can see the PNG shows both exponents nicely. But the HTML output is this: <span class="texhtml"><i>a</i><sup><i>b</i></sup><i>c</i></span> The inner exponent isn't <sup>'d. (Rendering tested on meta.wikimedia.org)
This seems to be the same as bug 599: texmf transforms <math>a^{b^c}</math> to <i>a</i><sup><i>b</i><sup><i>c</i></sup></sup> and tidy messes up the nested sup tags, transforming it to <i>a</i><sup><i>b</i></sup><i>c</i> If this analysis is correct, then the same fix as in 599 (upgrading tidy) applies.
