Maths equations fail in Firefox

I am seeing a lot of errors around the maths equations of the task description. I am using Firefox 56.0.2 (32 bit) on Windows.

Are they failing in and around the d_j = { ... ? If so, look (via edit) at the commented out HTML code within the Rosetta Code task Leonardo numbers preamble, which (on my FireFox and IE Explorer web browsers) causes Rosetta Code to fail to render the equation correctly, in fact, it causes Rosetta Code to get a "time out". The HTML code that is commented out works correctly on Wikipedia, where the HTML code was originally copied from (exactly copied). -- Gerard Schildberger (talk) 18:01, 6 November 2017 (UTC)

This sounds like a firefox regression.

I've been seeing a lot of regressions "lately" (actually, the last three or four years ... maybe - it's hard to put strict boundaries on this kind of thing), in browsers and in OSes. I do not know how to address such systematic failures. --Rdm (talk) 18:38, 6 November 2017 (UTC)
