Could someone please direct me to the list of vB codes that are available for making math symbols. There used to be a sticky that contained them, but it's gone. (Any pointers to other info about formatting equations with vB codes would be helpful also.)

Thanks!

There is an announcement about the math typesetting at the top of every single forum that points you to this page (which still is sticky):

I'm looking for the list of vB codes that used to be in a similar sticky, not the Latex stuff.

Don't tell me it's time I learned LaTeX... [g)]

I have actually taken down the bbcode symbol gifs and the topic about the ascii symbol codes. Check out the latex thread, it's not hard to pick up the basics.

Sorry for the confusion! [t)]

Perhaps it is -- it's no harder to type \partial than it is to type &pd; after all.
