Goal
Evaluate the best approach to fetch content for a a webview powered references pop-up
Background
Currently we are unable to render reference and notes in the popup correctly. A solution might be to use webviews in a similar way to how they are used for link previews.
Options might include:
- Whether getting around parsoid's wikitext -> html external limitations are possible?
- Scraping from the page html and then rendering in the webview
- Other?
Hello,
I was reading the page on Fast inverse square root:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fast_inverse_square_root?wprov=sfla1and I noticed that when clicking on a note, the pop-up does not render the style markup. This is most noticable with the math markup.
The first screenshot shows how Note 2 is rendered in the pop-up window when clicking on it in the article, and the second screenshot shows it correctly rendered on the actual page at the bottom of the article.
If there is a limitation that the pop-up window can only display plain text, then stripping out some of the math markup may help it become more readable.
Thanks,
