A new feature at DaniWeb is the ability to use [tex] bbcode. I feel this is a necessary feature if our Computer Science forums are ever to succeed. However, I want to be able to include some links to tex tutorials in my formal announcement on this feature. Does anyone know of any?

Hmm ... it's awfully small. But when I do something like $a+b=c$ it's not so.

$Oh this is awesome!<br /> <br /> Testing...$

Okay, I guess it's stuck in math mode.

$Testing...$ testing testing $testing....$

maybe?

$Testing...\text{\huge{a text portion}}...testing...$

Some more testing...

$\int_1^n \frac1x dx$

And some more...

$\frac{\left(\frac{1 + \sqrt 5}{2}\right)^n - \left(\frac{1 - \sqrt 5}{2}\right)^n}{\sqrt 5}$

$\text{\huge{$\frac{\left(\frac{1 + \sqrt 5}{2}\right)^n - \left(\frac{1 - \sqrt 5}{2}\right)^n}{\sqrt 5}$}}$

Could someone explain to me this "tex" code? Is that what creates the graphic for an equation?

never seen this done anywhere else. such a good idea - only slight problem seems to be that a load of <br/> tags appear - think this is due to the behaviour of the text box/submission?
