SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on troubleshooting Latex formatting issues on web pages, specifically when using the syntax ##...## or $$...$$. Users reported that Latex did not render correctly in preview mode unless the page already contained Latex content. Clearing the browser cache was identified as a solution to resolve rendering issues. The discussion also highlights the dependency of Latex functionality on the presence of existing Latex on the page.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Latex syntax for mathematical formatting
  • Familiarity with web page preview functionalities
  • Basic knowledge of browser cache management
  • Experience with web development environments that support Latex
NEXT STEPS
  • Research how to implement Latex in various web development frameworks
  • Learn about browser caching mechanisms and how they affect web content rendering
  • Explore troubleshooting techniques for Latex rendering issues
  • Investigate the use of Javascript libraries for dynamic Latex rendering on web pages
USEFUL FOR

Web developers, content creators, and educators who utilize Latex for mathematical expressions on their web pages will benefit from this discussion.

Greetings,

I was just attempting to post some content that would include some simple Latex formatting with either ##...## or $$...$$.

Neither worked for me under "Preview" instead merely displaying ##...## for example.

I was under the impression that the Latex formatting should work under "Preview".ES

Hmmm I just tested and it worked in preview mode. What browser are you using? Try clearing your cache.
 
I think it depends if there's LaTeX already on the page. So LaTeX will work in preview here because #1 contains LaTeX, but not on (e.g.) Lame Jokes which doesn't have any LaTeX on its current page.

ah that is an interesting situation that I didn't think of
 
Firefox on Linux. I will try that. Thanks.

Clearing the cache seems to have worked.
