syntax highlighting in chrome on OSX 10.8.3

[kjemmett]

Hi all,

Syntax highlighting is not working for code cells in Google Chrome. Just the code cells, output cells and line numbers are fine. No problems in Safari and Firefox. This is on a fresh copy of the repo, installed with:

git clone https://github.com/ipython/ipython
cd ipython/ && python setup.py submodule && python setup.py install

OS: OSX 10.8.3
Google Chrome: Version 26.0.1410.65
Python: 2.7.2

This was working fine yesterday, a git pull broke loading the submodules, which I fixed, leaving only this syntax highlighting problem.

Thanks!

I can confirm that your code results in a working install, exactly as typed on:

OS X 10.8.3
Chrome 28.0.1500.2
(System) Python 2.7.2

in a fresh virtualenv (after easy_install pyzmq tornado jinja2)

My guess is there was some stale IPython sitting around somewhere. Try pip uninstall ipython until it stops finding anything, then reinstall.

I noticed that when I started a second ipython kernel syntax highlighting was working, though the shell was giving me an error:

ERROR:root:First ws message didn't have the form 'identity:[cookie]' - ''

This gave an urge to clear the cache in Chrome, which fixed the problem.
