I can convert tex to html keeping equations as latex (to be rendered by MathJax) but using multiple dollar signs in a paragraph poses a problem. If there's only one dollar sign in a paragraph, using \$ works fine for pdflatex and tex4ht. But if there are two dollar signs in a paragraph, they get "paired up" and all text in between gets interpreted as MathJax. Is there a way around this?
Tex mwe:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[]{amsmath,amsthm}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\begin{document}
One price in a paragraph works fine: \$30.
But if I need to use two prices in a paragraph, the dollar signs get ``paired up'' and rendered as mathjax: \$20 to \$30.
