In Firefox, got to Tools/Clear Private Dataalternatively, if you want to control what is being cleared (i.e. clearing only the cache not the saved passwords etc..)
Tools/Options/Privacy and make sure you select "Aske me before clearing private data"With this option enabled, every time you clear private data, you will get a popup window asking you what you want to clear.

Ctrl + 0 (zero)I recently faced a weird issue with Firefox. All the images on my blog were rather blurry as if they were wrongly scaled. So I tried with a new Firefox profile and it worked fine. So there must have been some setting or some add-on that is part of the current user profile that is causing this. I removed all the extensions and add-ons to no avail. Just moments ago, I found the solution on the Blitz Research forum. It turns out to be an issue related to the zoom level for a given website, which Firefox 3.0 remembers. By clicking Ctrl + 0, you reset to the no zoom.

<img src="http://www.codecogs.com/gif.latex?e^x = \sum\limits_{n = 0}^\infty {\frac{{x^n }}{{n!}}}" />Voila!
Voila!
- Go to the codecogs online LaTeX editor
- Type in your equations LaTeX
- Copy the HTML code that is generated at the bottom of the page
- Paste it in Blogger (either in the "Edit HTML" or "Compose views).
Voila!
- Go to your blog's Layout
- Click on "Edit HTML"
- Place your class somewhere before ]]> </b:skin >
- Define your new class as follows:
img.latexEquation {
background:white;
margin: 0px;
padding: 5px;
}- When you paste the HTML code from codecogs, specify which class is applied to the image as follows:
<img class="latexEquation" src="..."/>

As discussed in the original post, DVD Decrypter will remove any encryption that is embedded into the DVD.
- Download DVD Decrypter
- Download Auto Gordian Knot
Depending on the length of your DVD/episode and your platform, it usually takes less than 30 minutes to rip a 150 minutes DVD. When the decryption process in complete open up AutoGK and do the following
Voila!
- For your input file, choose the first VOB file in the extracted directory
- Set the name and location of the output AVI
- Select the first audio track
- Select a subtitle (if any)
- Select the output size. Usually, a 120 minutes DVD converts well to 700 MB. For 30 minute TV episodes, I would choose 175 MB while for a 1 hour episode, i would choose 350 MB. Alternatively, you can set the quality percentage. I find this the fastest way as AutoGK will perform a single pass. I usually keep this setting at around 65%
- Click on advanced settings and choose Xvid and set the audio to VBR MP3 at 128 kbps . Note that you may need to download XviD (or DivX)
- Click on add job
- Click start

Voila!
- Download ASCIIMathML.js and host it somewhere online such as your google pages website. This will allow you to modify the script to fit your needs (like changing the forecolor of the equations). Alternatively, you can just point to the location of the script (http://www1.chapman.edu/~jipsen/mathml/ASCIIMathML.js)
- In Blogger, add a new HTML/Java Script widget
- Add the following to the new widget
<script src="http://www1.chapman.edu/~jipsen/mathml/ASCIIMathML.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
(In case you decided to host the script on your own website, you will need to replace src with the correct location).
Make sure you replace the \[ and \] generated by MathType by the dollar sign.
- In Mathtype, go to
Preferences/Translators- Select "Translation to other language"
- Select "TeX -- LaTeX 2.09 and later"
- Deselect "include MathType data in translation"
