Is there a known product corresponding to this

The product of subgroups. If either H or K is
normal
and maximal, then
G = HK provided H and K are distinct, but the
condition is far from
necessary.

Again, PLEASE hit the carriage return when you get to
about 65-70
characters. DO NOT rely on Mathforum's editor to
break up your lines:
it doesn't do it properly. Your reply was one long
line that ran off
the right edge of my screen.


I think it is a problem with your web browser.

I don't read the newsgroup through a browser. That's part of the
problem. Not everyone reads the newsgroup through a browser, or
through (bleach) MathForum.

The problem is MathForum's formatting, not me.

For example my most recent post at
http://mathforum.org/kb/message.jspa?messageID=6223261
looks fine to me.

You are looking at the message through MathForum; Mathforum's
formatting reads okay through MathForum, of course, but the point is
that not everyone uses MathForum (or a web-browser) to read the
newsgroup.

Compare the SOURCE message, for example, with Google:

http://groups.google.com/group/sci.math/msg/2ee7aba4bccc8c5d?dmode=source

Now look at my message, and see how my text does not keep going to the
right.

Perhaps upgrade to the latest version of IE or Firefox?

I ->am<- using the latest version of Firefox, son. Thank you for your
"tip".
