Description

Given following HMTL code which includes the \[ and \] Latex delimiters:

\[<\] <strong>We</strong>

the output of force_balance_tags is

\[<\] <strong>We

which is not correct as the bold tags are unbalanced. Expected output should be the input string.

  • Summary changed from force_balance_tags not properly balancing < in \[\] block to force_balance_tags not properly balancing < with <strong> and </strong>

I found an even simple string producing the error.

For following HMTL code which includes the < symbol:

< <strong>We</strong>

the output of force_balance_tags is

< <strong>We

which is not correct as the bold tags are unbalanced. Expected output should be the input string.
