Thanks for keeping track of those issues. I would add them to the tinymce track ticket (4705) but its just been closed as that was merged in sage-3.3.alpha0 which is up on sage.math.washington.edu in mabshoff's folder but hasn't been announced yet. I could open a new ticket, but there have been a lot of little fixes to the notebook in sage-3.3.alpha0 and so its possible that some of the weird things you saw have been fixed.
So this should be looked at in sage-3.3.alpha0 - I will give it a whirl as soon as I've got it running. -Marshall Hampton On Jan 18, 11:45 pm, Luiz Felipe Martins <luizfelipe.mart...@gmail.com> wrote: > I have been using TinyMCE for about three weeks now.
