I'm still having problems getting math formatting to work on my wiki. I get: *Failed to parse (PNG conversion failed; check for correct installation of latex, dvips, gs, and convert): x = x + 78*
Running on Solaris 10, wiki installed in /var/apache2/htdocs/wiki. ocaml installed, TeTeX installed, gs installed, ImageMagick installed dvips, convert, latex, gs all in /usr/local/bin Have
putenv("MAGICK_HOME=/usr/local/ImageMagick-6.2.1/:" . getenv("MAGICK_HOME")); putenv("LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/ImageMagick-6.2.1/lib:" . getenv("LD_LIBRARY_PATH"));
near the top of my localSettings (thanks Kate).
When I run the ImageMagick test I from the command line as root or as a user I get the ImageMagick test image displayed. I can run the latex config OK. The make for texvc didn't produce any errors and I've done a make clean, make cycle each time I've changed something just to make sure. When I try and run the texvc command line test in the math README I get:

/images/tmp is read-writeable by all but there wasn't any output in it.
Once again, help?
By the way, thanks to all for the help with the sysop issue. A local IT here did the initial install of the wiki for me but couldn't remember if he'd set up a sysop. I rooted around in the SQL database and found WikiSysop, with the same password as root, so I now have a working sysop.

Hi Everyone,
Thanks to all who sent advice to my previous question!
I would also like to know if anyone here has experience with how to move the page content area (and tabs just above it) down the page about 100 px or so. I am pretty sure this is css, but I can't tell which styles should be changed to meet this requirement.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks again,
Alison :-)
Setting a top margin for the body is easy, but to then use that area for something else like a banner may be difficult. Otherwise start by looking for CSS using "absolute" positions and try increasing "top". This will need further tweaks, so be prepared to spend some time experimenting, reverting, reading specifications, and getting appropriate tools.
