You can use inline mode ( this is single-$-signs, or \( ... \)  ) 
combined with <br /> but this gets ugly with fractions in the tth 
displaymode because tth's typesetting of inline fractions is ugly. You 
can fix this by forcing displaymode of inline math by including a 
<tthoption> -t </tthoption> tag.

Examples:
(1) <br /><m>\( u = \frac{x}{y} \)</m><br />

(2) <br /><tthoption> -t </tthoption><m>\( u = \frac{x}{y} \)</m><br />

(3) <br /><m display="jsmath">\( u = \frac{x}{y} \)</m><br />

Lars.
