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.
