That might be a good idea, it has not been a trivial task for me at
least. But then I am not an expert on PhP.
I have at least got the mimetex.html page to work, so I know that it
is not the CGI thing that is the cause of the trouble. Plonk the
mimetext.html file at the root of htdocs and the mimetex.exe file in
cgi-bin and it works.
My guess is that the problem is with the references to files in
config.php and mimetex.php. The structure I have in my (Windows)
Apache server is c:\apache2\cgi-bin\, this is where I have placed the
mimetex.exe file. As to the Wiki itself, that is located in
c:\apache2\htdocs\textbook.
What else do I need to solve the problem?
Tom
