Bug 1904220 - Fix MathML regression with HYPHEN-MINUS not rendered as MINUS SIGN. r=emilio
48 bytes, text/x-phabricator-request
Details | Review

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:127.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/127.0

Steps to reproduce:

Create an HTML document containing either of the following math tags:

<math><mo>-</mo><mo>−</mo></math>

<math><mo>-</mo><mo>−</mo></math>

Actual results:

The first character, the hypen-minus, renders much smaller than the official math minus, appearing to be less than half the length of the latter.

Expected results:

The hypen-minus used to render the same size as math minus in MathML. Since this character is easy to type with a standard keyboard, the former behavior should be restored. The current behavior does not match MathJax, where both characters render the same size.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::MathML' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

It should be done in https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/02a4a649ed75ebaf3fbdf301c3d3137baf6842a1/layout/mathml/nsMathMLmoFrame.cpp#120

It's working if I set mathml.centered_operators.disabled to false, so probably a regression of bug 1890531.

Keywords: regression
Regressed by: 1890531

I think nsMathMLmoFrame::UseMathMLChar() should still return true for the hyphen.

After bug 1890531, mathml.centered_operator is disabled and
U+002D HYPHEN-MINUS in <mo> no longer renders as U+2212 MINUS SIGN.
This patches restore this behavior as the change was unintentional, even
though this is not specified in MathML Core.

(In reply to Paul Masson from comment #0)

The hypen-minus used to render the same size as math minus in MathML. Since this character is easy to type with a standard keyboard, the former behavior should be restored. The current behavior does not match MathJax, where both characters render the same size.

In general our reference for browsers is MathML Core, not MathJax. For this particular bug, this is a legacy behavior from Firefox and WebKit but it is not standardized in MathML Core, not covered by WPT tests and not implemented in Chromium.

Anyway, since it was unintentional change I uploaded D219085 to restore previous behavior.

The patch landed in nightly and beta is affected.
:fredw, is this bug important enough to require an uplift?

  • If yes, please nominate the patch for beta approval.
  • If no, please set status-firefox131 to wontfix.

For more information, please visit BugBot documentation.

Probably not important enough to require an uplift.

status-firefox131: affected → wontfix
Flags: needinfo?(fwang)

If I may ask, what precisely is an uplift? And if this can be fixed sooner rather than later, why not do so?

I've noticed that the vertical bar operator "|" is no longer automatically stretchy when included inside <row></row>. Is this change in behavior due to this regression or should I file another bug report?
