Description
The newest version of input paging plugin lacks of two css selectors AND inserts one empty <span> element:
- paginate_page
- paginate_of
Before (in older version):
<span class="paginate_page">Page </span>
<input class="paginate_input" type="text">
<span class="paginate_of"> of 3</span>
Now (in latest version):
<span>Page </span>
<input class="paginate_input" type="text">
<span> of </span>
<span class="paginate_total">3</span>
<span></span>
I tried to fix it, but there is some "hacking" with regex within plugin, which I don't understand.
Cheers
