I have an initial implementation ready of the [latex] code, this is my first test trying the same binomial equation:

$\color{white} \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

How about a simple $\color{white} y = mx + b$ inline equation, how's that look?

Re: A bit of basic string theory

I wasn't happy with that either and already had inquiries in. The problem seems to be that the graphical renderer assumes a white background, and so the text is dithered with that assumption.

In the meantime, here's another way to say Latex:

$\color{white} \color{yellow}\LaTeX$

Re: A bit of basic string theory

What are you using to render the Latex, Percy?

Yet Another Variation

Got an answer back from CodeCogs, giving it a try with both non-bold and bold, and with white and red:

$\color{white}\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$\bf\color{white}\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$\color{red}I=\int_{\cal{B}}d^4\! x\sqrt{\tilde{g}} e^{\Phi}\left(\tilde{R}(\tilde{g})+\left(\nabla \Phi \right)^2-{1\over 12} H_{\mu\nu\rho}H^{\mu\nu\rho} \right)$

$\bf\color{red}I=\int_{\cal{B}}d^4\! x\sqrt{\tilde{g}} e^{\Phi}\left(\tilde{R}(\tilde{g})+\left(\nabla \Phi \right)^2-{1\over 12} H_{\mu\nu\rho}H^{\mu\nu\rho} \right)$

Excellent!

Re: Yet Another Variation

On this one, I see a lot of dots and vertical lines.

I'm using IE 6.0 at work here.

The one above the one I'm replying to, where you mention getting Java to set the default size or whatever was much smoother and clearer.

Re: Updated Latex Rendering

stupid question #1946576

How long did it take you to do the following:

$\color{white} \color{green}I=\int_{\cal{B}}d^4\! x\sqrt{\tilde{g}} e^{\Phi}\left(\tilde{R}(\tilde{g})+\left(\nabla \Phi \right)^2-{1\over 12} H_{\mu\nu\rho}H^{\mu\nu\rho} \right)$

Re: Independent confirmation

Same again here, when I switch to IE 6.0
