Uncaught Error: MathJax retry

Issue Summary

Seems that first render will always get error for some special equations.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Open browser console
  2. Type and execute:
MathJax.tex2chtml('\\color{#FF0000}{x^2}')
  1. You will get the following error message:
Uncaught Error: MathJax retry

  1. After error shows, repeat step 2 again, you will not get same error message anymore.

Refresh the page, then if you type MathJax.tex2chtml('x^2'), then you will not get any error even for your first call.

Technical details:

  • MathJax Version: 3.2.2
  • Client OS: Windows 10
  • Browser: Firefox 105, Edge 105
