This script does not work correctly for me. Everything up to and including preview works fine, but the insert button does nothing. Also, any chance of getting this to work in google sites? Thank you for your hard work, this is a great idea.

Greetings folks.

I appreciate the concept of this script but can't figure out how to "install" it after downloading.
I would be most thankful for any assistance.

Thanks,

Robert

Thanks for making this available; it's already quite useful.

The LaTeX item only shows up on one of my browsers; is there any chance of making detection a little more reliable?

I guess the other BIG wish I would have is to be able to re-edit a formula by clicking on it in some way. Since the URL contains what I typed, it should be fairly easy to do this and only require client-side processing.

Yeap:
Error: document.getElementById("picture") has no properties
Source File: file:///home/etejada/.mozilla/firefox/qqlffonk.default/gm_scripts/latexforgoogledocs1.user.js
Line: 14

Seems the the code from google docs didn't work, if you want a copy of the source for an example page, i can try sending a copy by mail or so.

Hi,

It seems it stopped working for me as well, i get one error message in the error console:

Error: document.getElementById("picture") has no properties
Source File: file:///home/username/.mozilla/firefox/x883x3.default/gm_scripts/latexforgoogledocs.user.js
Line: 13


Going to line 13 and changing picture to m-picture and comment to m-comment fixed the problem.

Code below taken from google docs source



I'm having trouble using this script. I have Greasemonkey up and running and the script installed but I don't get the menu option Insert->LaTeX. Any ideas?

I checked it now again an indeed there is no problem, perhaps it was something temporary with the web site.

It doesn't handle brackets well.
The command:
\begin{array} {cc}
ax^2 & \lambda \\
\left( \int_0^\infty dx \right) & 2
\end{array}

showed anything it is supposed to apart from the brackets who where showen as simple ones and not scaled. it also showed a right pointing arrow.

No apologies needed! :D

Thanks for the update, you just made my life a lot simpler.

b.t.w. I just tested it against google apps for domains , which have a url of the type: http://docs.google.com/a/*/Doc?* and works great there as well.

Thanks

This doesn't seem to work for me. Anybody else get this to work?
