The problem you are encountering is that the latexmath JavaScript is interpreting those dollar signs as the start of a math expression. That also explains why it only happens in the html5 output (all the rest of the backends go through the DocBook toolchain and don't use the latexmath JavaScript).
The proper way to insert a dollar sign is to use \$. However, if you make that change in your example, the dollar still isn't rendered. That's because the syntax highlighter is separating the backslash and the dollar, so latexmath still sees the dollar sign. One option is to switch the source highlighter to pygments, which seems to leave the \$ alone. A better option may be to hack up the latexmath script to leave listing blocks alone. You need to look at the JavaScript function AMprocessNodeR. -Dan On Thu, Oct 17, 2013 at 8:37 AM, <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi all, > > I am trying to produce some documentation with asciidoc and really > enjoying the fact that I can take the exact same file and compile it to pdf > and/or html.
