Re: [WWdevel] LaTeXMathML mode

[Arnold P. <arn...@gm...>]

Hi,

Please hold off on removing the latex2html related code.  People at
Utah have written over a 1000 problems and we are told many of them
have TeX code outside of math mode.  This means that they can only be
viewed in latex2html mode which is why Utah usually uses this mode.
Peter Alfred has just given us the Utah problems and hopefully we can
get an intern to clean up the ones with offending TeX code.  It's
possible other problem writers have done the same.

I think what we should do is to just by default comment out the almost
never used modes.
