WPG2 breaking WordPress in FireFox & Safari

Continuing http://www.galleryembedded.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=8318, I have found that this error does not occur when the visitor has admin rights when visiting the site. When the visitor is not logged in, however, the code breaks at the place where a WPG2-tagged image would be inserted.

I turned off the internal WPG2 lightbox script, and installed the Slimbox WordPress plugin, which is a drop-in replacement for Lightbox, without any result.

If you look into the document source of my webpage, you really see the code being stopped right where the first content would be where a WPG2-tagged image would be included.

Gallery2 works fine stand-alone and within WordPress.

The problem is theme-independent; I prefer K2 but the problem even happens in the Default WordPress theme.

The problem basically happens with the default theme, with WPG2 as only active plugin, when the WPG2 Lightbox-setting "Should WPG2 Tags have Lightbox Support?" is enabled and the user is not logged in (a normal anonymous visitor), and breaks WordPress output from the first bit of content where a WPG2-tagged image is included.

I already reinstalled WordPress (excluding the DB), WPG2, K2... All are now running on latest versions (WP2.3, WPG2 3.0RC, K2 1.0).

The post "Awaiting Delivery" has the following content in the database:

Parsed through WPG2 and WordPress, with me as admin visiting, this becomes

Oh yes, the reason is I disabled lightbox support. Let me turn it back on.

<wpg2>7484</wpg2><wpg2>7490</wpg2><wpg2>7476</wpg2>
I fixed it. It turns out that on your server the lightbox part of the code is case sensitive. It only works if the tags are upper case: WPG2

I changed it to
<WPG2>7484</WPG2><WPG2>7490</WPG2><WPG2>7476</WPG2>
and it worked.

Now, this is very strange, because G2Image Chooser puts out lower case tags, and they work on my dev box, my demo site, and www.wpg2next.com. So, I'm not sure why it has to be upper case on your server.

Ozgreg, have you seen anything like this before?

EDIT: I changed the code to look for lower case by default, and removed the logic that could allow the replacement to be case sensitive. (That logic was never used, so I'm still not sure how your server is case sensitive, unless it's ignoring the case insensitive flag on the preg_replace.) I also can't figure out why it is case sensitive for LightBox, but not in normal ops...

EDIT 2: Please try the latest SVN snapshot to see if that removes the case sensitivity for you.

EDIT 3: Never mind. I just looked at the post again, and the WordPress "auto HTML clean-up" code automatically makes the tags lower case, even if you edit them to be upper case. Unless you updated to the SVN snapshot between my first and second look, I think what fixed that entry was removing the messed-up hyperlink that I suggested removing above. (It didn't have an img tag within it.)

So, while all of the changes that I just made do clean the code up a little, they really don't matter for this issue...

This is killing me... (Not your fault, just (bleep)ing computers.)

Ok, so now I'm still seeing the links work in FF, even when logged out with cache disabled. But in IE, I'm not seeing them work. (I suspect my FF is really caching, even though I'm using the Web Developer plugin to disable it.)

I'll take another look...

EDIT: Yeah, it's still broken. No clue. Will ponder while stuck in traffic...

I put up the snapshot, and turned the original theme and plugins on. I figure you changed something, since as an admin, lightbox works, but as a visitor, you just get the mod-rewrite link to the wpg2 gallery picture
