Hi. In a LaTeX .tex file when a sum appears as a term in an equation, for
example if I were to type these commands,
\begin{equation}
y=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i
\end{equation}
, it would look as it should after running a latex2html command on the .tex
file with the "i=1" below the summation sign (capital Greek letter sigma) and
the "n" above the summation sign. But when a sum was arranged to be in the
denominator of a fraction, say if I were to type something like this:
\begin{equation}
y=\frac{1}{\sum_{i=1}^n x_i}
\end{equation}
, in the resulting latex2html, output, .html file the items corresponding to
"i=1" and "n" were not respectively placed at the top and bottom of the
summation sign. Instead they were placed right after the summation sign, more
like you might expect for the upper and lower limits following an integral
sign. That format can be understood because the "i=1" and "n" would lie close
to where they should be relative to the summation sign; but that doesn't look
exactly right for a sum. I guess the solution may be to add some vertical
space(s) within the denominator of the fraction so that LaTeX or LaTeX2HTML
will have the vertical spaces in which to place both the "i=1" below the
summation sign and the "n" above the summation sign where they should be
without the "n" overlapping the fraction line above it. If so, what sort of
command should I include in mathematics or math mode to increase the vertical
space in a fraction to make the summation look completely normal, as in my
first example here, which I expect would not have any vertical placement
problems? Thanks in advance for help.
