<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span lang="EN-GB">Well, it should be a lot more accessible then the previous solution, as it is displayed using fonts in stead of generating an image. So you can also zoom in, etc.<br>

<br>
But I don't know what a screen reader makes of this.<br>
<br>
It the moment it uses a link to a website maintained by MathJax. It is not pure Javascript. There is a whole engine behind it apparently. You can install it locally (the installer is 16.7 Mb).<br>

Like I tried to explain in a different e-mail...<br>
<br>
- Based on MathJax (<a href="http://www.mathjax.org">http://www.mathjax.org</a>, as found by Pat)<br>
- Only works in Javascript/HTML5<br>
- Doesn't interfere with previous solution<br>
- Like previous solution, doesn't work off-line<br>
