 There are three modes for getting mathsymbols in this Wikiserver:
 This page should work in Internet Explorer 5.5+ with the MathPlayer plugin (http://www.dessci.com/en/products/mathplayer/), and also in Mozilla/Netscape 7+. Please report any problems to Peter Jipsen at jipsen@chapman.edu, and include a short description of the problem as well as your operating system and browser version.

Here we want to try a few MathML formulas. Since the document has to be served as xhtml rather than html, you need to use a modified Wikiserver at http://math.chapman.edu/cgi-bin/structuresxml.pl?Display_MathML_on_these_pages to have a chance of seeing the formulas.

There are three modes for getting math symbols in this Wikiserver:

(1) You can use MathML directly: <math xmlns="&mathml;"><mfrac><mi>a</mi><mi>b</mi></mfrac>[/itex]

(2) You can use fragments of latex that are translated into XHTML plus some MathML (when the XHTML symbols are inadequate): $b\in\mathbb B$ or $n\in\mathbb Z$

(3) You can include entire LaTeX documents enclosed by < latex> ... </latex> <latex> \documentclass{article} \begin{document} The following LaTeX formulas are translated on the fly by Ian Hutchinson's amazing TtM (http://hutchinson.belmont.ma.us/tth/mml/)

$\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4a c}}{2a}$ or $n\in\mathbb Z$ or $A\in\mathcal V$

$$\frac{d}{d x}(f(x))=\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}$$

$\int_a^b f(x)d x=\lim_{n\to\infty}\sum_{i=1}^nf(x_i^*)\Delta x$ where $\Delta x=\frac{b-a}{n}$ \end{document} </latex>

If you want to try your own examples, here is a MathML-Latex sandbox
