Wth this answer, I tried to use jTab's custom chord syntax (ref) to display a normal chord shape with non-standard fingering. Hunting around in questions tagged chords, the only example I found just used the bare names and let jTab implicitly select the standard shape.

So here's all the ways I tried:

  • In a code block

    %3/3.2/2.0/0.0/0.3/4.3/4[G]

  • In a code block with no appended display name

    %3/3.2/2.0/0.0/0.3/4.3/4

  • In a div tag

%3/3.2/2.0/0.0/0.3/4.3/4[G]

  • In a div tag in a code block

    %3/3.2/2.0/0.0/0.3/4.3/4[G]

And I'm out of ideas. Help? Is this feature activated? Am I doing it wrong(ly)?

  • Earlier I was seeing strange errors in the revisions view -- there were things like <div etc=""> shown on the staff. I assumed it was a problem with Chrome beta since I didn't see it in FF, but maybe not.

  • I got the <div> tags from the jTab examples page. Even there, it suggested the effect should be merely cosmetic. I thought it might get processed differently and potentially trigger the "right" thing. I confess CSS scares me.

We're currently on an older version of jTab that doesn't support that particular custom chord syntax.

Never fear, though! I'm pushing out the latest version of this awesome library, so your post should work soon.

  • Did this update happen yet? Could it be the cause of meta.music.stackexchange.com/questions/358/…

    Yes, the update was pushed out when I answered this question. Your answer is rendering fine for me in FireFox 13.0.1 and Chrome 19.0.1084.56. I doubt it's the cause of your Iceweasel issue.
