\frac acts strange

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. type /frac{x}{y} in a certain place in the document (usually at the 
start of a line or start of the document)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

 \frac{a}{b}  &=  7{\frac{ft^3}{min}}, d &= 12in &= 1.7ft, r=.77ft

a \frac{}{ b &= 7{\frac{ft^3}{min}}, d &= 12in &= 1.7ft, r=.77ft}

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Please provide any additional information below.

This seams to always occur on the first line. It doesn't occur on the 
second line if the first line uses / instead of \frac, but then occurs 
again on th third line.

    m &= \frac{m_0}{\sqrt{1}} \\
    E &= mc^2                              does the same, and

  \begin{align}
    m &= \frac{m_0}{\sqrt{1}} \\
    E &= mc^2                              doesn't display anything

  \end{align}

error detection would be a good feature to add to this though.

The compiler currently ignores syntax errors.
