Editor Modifies My HTML

[The Stormm]

I have created a custom module for the editor that allows me to insert a data figure.  What I want to insert is a custom HTML tag that is replaced at runtime (via regex) with content from the figure table.  Here is what I initially input...

<figure id="ddd91a0c-4db2-413f-8fff-3a84bc3d5506">[Figure: This is a test figure title...]</figure>

The issue arises when I toggle between Design and HTML view OR when I save the data.  The editor automatically formats my tag to...

<figure id="ddd91a0c-4db2-413f-8fff-3a84bc3d5506" />[Figure: This is a test figure title...]

This causes my entire figure insert protocol to fail and the users now see '[Figure: This is a test figure title...]" instead of an image and a legend.  As far as I can tell the issue appear to be specific to IE as I was successfully working with this process in FF.

Is there any way I can turn off the auto-formatting that is happening?

Hello The Stormm,

Internet Explorer works better with custom tags that have a specified namespace. See this article for more information: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms531076%28VS.85%29.aspx

You should rename the tag as follows and you will not experience the reported problem:

<my:figure id="ddd91a0c-4db2-413f-8fff-3a84bc3d5506">[Figure: This is a test figure title...]</my:figure>

All the best,
