Well, I'm sure Alistair would agree that it would be better to do something that is of limited accessibility to some, but of great use to many, rather than do nothing, with no benefit to anyone. But he would encourage us to find ways to make it accessible if it were possible...

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.

But I don't know what a screen reader makes of this.

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).

Cool - how accessible is it?

Why doesn't it work off line?

Like I tried to explain in a different e-mail...

- Based on MathJax (http://www.mathjax.org, as found by Pat)
- Only works in Javascript/HTML5
- Doesn't interfere with previous solution
- Like previous solution, doesn't work off-line

I think that would be a big step forward, nice one. This has been a  longstanding problem,
