 * Hello –
 * Itt seems TinyMCE by default does not allow conditional comments, meaning, when
   you are editing the conditional comment for Outlook “<!–[if (gte mso 9)|(IE)]
   >”, tinyMCE adds a space between the “<1–” and the “[if”, thus resulting in “
   <!– [if (gte mso 9)|(IE)]>” within the editor.
 * Using this plugin, I tried to set the TinyMCE content filtering option “allow_conditional_comments”
   to true, hoping to prevent the extra space from being added by TinyMCE, but this
   doesn’t seem to work.
 * Is this option supported by Advanced TinyMCE Configuration?
 * Thanks in advance.

 * Hello again –
 * I discovered what the problem was: This plugin is properly setting the “allow_conditional_comments”
   to true, but another plugin was overriding that and removing the setting. Once
   I deactivated the other plugin, the setting was properly set to true, and conditional
   comments get enabled in tinyMCE as hoped.
 * Apologies for the inconvenience, and thank you for all the great work you’ve 
   done on this plugin.
