Recently I am planning to start a blog with wordpress. I am thinking of posting some mathematics question...but how am I supposed to type in all the symbols?

Currently I have to copy the symbols from other site and paste them in my own blog...

I don't think so.

Never mind then. I was going to suggest that as a simple way to get around the problem since one can find a variety of freeware programs that convert latex code to gif images.

If you have a wordpress blog with wordpress.com (the provider), then you should use their built-in latex features.

Good luck!

If you are using Linux, ther is a program called KLatexFormula that allows you to write in LaTeX then copy into you document as if they were pictures under a whole suite of image formats (jpeg, png etc....).
