Yeah - thot that might be cryptic after I posted. Hard to write in
this forum. Editors tend to try to "help" you.
I would NOT worry unless someone else complains since:
* I have been moving stuff from the sagenb site to the canterbury site
and now back again. Each has different editors. The canterbury editor
has limited html options.
* I tend to "color" my text using <span> tags. The canterbury site had
some problems with that (e.g. it would ignore a <span> tag followed by
a <strong> tag).
* I am working with vectors and the (now standard) notation for
vectors is using <a,b,c> and of course html uses < and > as tags.
* I am an interminable reviser which drives editors crazy.
=========
Anyway what happened is:  <span> tags were added  inside  the mathjax
code:

Example: $x=2$  became $x<span>=2$.

jsmath would ignore this "addition" and process, mathjax would not.
You could not see this addition in the editor, only in the html and of
course my latex was much, much more complex than this example ....
=====
This MAY have been the ONLY problem, but (a) I don't know when they
got added and (b) other "editing" was happening.
=====
For sure, the test.sagenb editor does this:
For <, I always write \lt which is latex for the less than symbol. The
editor changes this to &lt; which is html for this symbol.
Arrays in latex have & between the elements in a row. The editor
changes this to &amp;
=====
However, these replacements seem to work in mathjax, but I really wish
editors did not want to help me :)

Best, Linda
