I have MoinMoin setup to use MathJax to render mathematical equations.

I have noticed today that there are some problems, which I think are related to MoinMoin but I don't understand how to fix them.

Here is an example from http://www.mathjax.org/demos/tex-samples/

The following text is in the HTML of the page above (second example) and is rendered by an external server.

\[ \left( \sum_{k=1}^n a_k b_k \right)^2 \leq \left( \sum_{k=1}^n a_k^2 \right) \left( \sum_{k=1}^n b_k^2 \right) \]


However, when I add the same text to a MoinMoin page and then render it (eg preview of save), I see instead the following in the HTML source

\[ \left( \sum_{k=1}<sup>n a_k b_k \right)</sup>2 \leq \left( \sum_{k=1}<sup>n a_k</sup>2 \right) \left( \sum_{k=1}<sup>n b_k</sup>2 \right) \]

There are a number of <sup> tags that have been inserted. These tags confuse the MathJax server, so it fails to render correctly.

MoinMoin also uses '^' as a super script formatter. So there is something that I need to do to prevent MoinMoin from formatting these lines.

How can I fix this problem?

Thanks
