LaTeX editor not working in Chrome?

kjdav opened this issue · comments

When I click LaTeX Editor link in chrome on OST, a blank window opens.

The editor opens in Firefox, on both dev and OST. Editor opens when using Chrome in dev.

I believe the problem is Chrome's treatment of insecure/mixed page content.

Both Safari and Firefox work. In Chrome, the popup contains a gray shield which mentions the problem and offers the option to load the content anyway:

However, choosing to "load anyway" doesn't do anything.

WORKAROUND: Choose "load anyway", keep the popup open, and then reload the exercise page. Future clicks on the LaTeX editor link will successfully open in the popup until it is closed.

I believe I have fixed this in all three browsers (works for me in them in production).
