Is there a reason I cannot use my key script in edit mode anymore? This would be a massive disadvantage!

Anyway: my programmed shortcuts don't apply anymore. E.g. 'ctrl+m' for '\longmapsto'. And yes, it is not a local problem since it works in notepad and other script editors, however, not here as I am writing this.

I observed while checking other editors that it does not work in Chrome. I will check Opera.

Damn Google.

I take back all I said and claim the opposite.

It works again after a restart of the machine. But what the heck was it, that worked everywhere except on Chrome?

Homework Statement: Not applicable. I'm asking about a technical problem with the PhysicsForums software Relevant Equations: \left(-2+2 \,\mathrm{I}\right)^{\frac{1}{3}} \left(-2+2 \,\mathrm{I}\right)^{\frac{1}{3}} I posted the LaTeX code for an expression in the "relevant equations" and "attempt at a solution" boxes. When I'm in the "attempt at a solution" box and I click "Preview," I do not see a preview of the expression properly displayed, only the code. After I post this message...
