Mathematical Formula Expansion

last modified: September 5, 2011

It appears you cannot make a LaTeX equation in the Wiki, but it may be possible, for instance to place a link to a mathematical formula.

[http://latex.codecogs.com/gif.latex?\begin{pmatrix} ct'\\ x' \end{pmatrix} %3D \begin{pmatrix} -\beta \gamma %26 \gamma \\ \gamma %26 -\beta \gamma \end{pmatrix} \begin{pmatrix} ct\\ x \end{pmatrix}]

This is available from http://www.codecogs.com/latex/eqneditor.php under the "URL encoded" format.

Also, you may be able to see a list of characters here to copy and paste at the top of mathematical documents, so that you can use them.

(This does NOT work on all phpwiki's; it may be site dependent.)


You can hack WardsWiki to render this as an inline image as follows (look at the source Luke):

Note the "&a.gif" at the end. It clutters the image a bit, but tricks the wiki-engine into believing this to be an image (probably just pattern matching at the end).
