Headers break when {alignment*} is used

[hugo-ballester]

(I am using MathJax plugin, Date: 2014-07-22, on Dokuwiki Release 2013-05-10 "Weatherwax")

This alignment blog breaks the headers below, if they are followed by further display equations:

$$
\begin{align*}
D_{i} & := a
\end{align*}
$$
==This header displays as text, it is broken==
Broken example because align block above and equation below:
$$ x = \int y$$

Note that if there are no further display equations it works fine:

$$
\begin{align*}
D_{i} & := a
\end{align*}
$$
==This header displays fine==
This works

The align* environment does not need to be in $$ delimiters. Remove those around the align* environment, and it should work fine.

See the documentation. Also reported in #14 and #8. Let me know if you see a better way to avoid this confusion in the future. Thanks!

thanks a lot,

perhaps it would be better to change in the documentation of https://www.dokuwiki.org/plugin:mathjax#display_math the sentence:

Note that the math environments do not need to be inside the dollar sign delimiters; the environments can stand on their own with just the \begin and \end statements and be parsed correctly.

Note that the math environments* should not* be inside the dollar sign delimiters; the environments should stand on their own with the \begin and \end statements in order to be parsed correctly.
