I can't quote the post here, or the error won't show up, but have a look at this post by ElectricFetus in the "Do Police have the right To murder" thread, post #34: http://www.sciforums.com/threads/do-police-have-a-right-to-murder.158852/page-2#post-3437550 It's in the 3rd paragraph. All of the words are in italics and the spaces have been removed. I tried to quote the post, just to see what was typed, but the sentence there is normal text with spaces. What causes this? I've seen it a few times reading threads.
Daaaaaamn....that's a lot of tags. I wonder why someone would use that for just regular text posting? Thanks for the answer.
Ever seen what a Word doc looks like behind the curtain? It's surely generated by some MathJax editor. Invisible to the user. Prob'ly using it to write some special symbols just like Latex. But I think it's either being used wrong, or there's a bug, cuz it's essentially wrapping each character in its own unique - yet identical - tag.
Has it to do with this? http://www.sciforums.com/threads/put-the-dollar-sign-in-the-basket-i-mean-italic.157023/
Aye, that is exactly it - you can either put the dollar sign in italics, or put a slash before it (a slash is the escape character for LaTeX formatting). As el es above posted, it's the LaTeX formatting - I have gone back and edited that post to correct it Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
