LaTeX equations

It is possible to enabled TeX in a MediaWiki ([http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Math Manual:Math]), but unfortunately it doesn't seem like iGEM has done that..

Another to enable your wiki to display LaTeX equations, is to use [http://www.mathjax.org/ MathJax]. MathJax is a JavaScript file located at http://cdn.mathjax.org/mathjax/latest/MathJax.js, which reads your document after it has been loaded, and then changes the content of the document according to the notation. That is, it removes everything between any of the following delimiters...

• \(...\)
• $...$ (if configured)
• \[...\]
• $$...$$
• \begin{?} ... \end{?}

...and replace them with equations. All you need to do is to add the following to your wiki tekst:

<!-- Use MathJax (LaTeX for the web) -->
<script type="text/x-mathjax-config">
    MathJax.Hub.Config({tex2jax: {inlineMath: [['$','$'], ['\\(','\\)']]}});
    MathJax.Hub.Config({
        TeX: { 
            equationNumbers: {  autoNumber: "AMS"  }
        }
    });
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://cdn.mathjax.org/mathjax/latest/MathJax.js?config=TeX-AMS-MML_HTMLorMML"></script>
