I am composing my latex in mathbot and copying the code into mathhelpforum. I insertafter everything, but when I send it to myself (because I'm still working it out) all I get is the code. Any ideas why it's going awry?
See the LaTeX Help section on the main forum page. Remember to use [TEX]...[/TEX] tags around the LaTeX code. If you want to use LaTeX outside of this forum, search the web for introductions, such as this Wikibook. See this page for some additional links.
