A good alternative for creating web pages with math is using jsMath [1]. It uses java script to replace latex notation with symbols in some fonts provided by it. It works really well after everything is setup and does not suffer the problem of poor mathML support by some browsers, since its only javascript.
Because the replacements are done only when the web page is viewed the publishing from org-mode is really fast (you need to tell org-mode not to interpret or replace any latex syntax in the equations). Also, after google chrome was released and every browser is increasing javascript speed the replacements when the web page is viewed in a browser are fast even when there are a lot of equations. There is a page in worg [2] that explains how to get jsMath working with org-mode. - Darlan [1] http://www.math.union.edu/~dpvc/jsMath/ [2] http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-jsmath.php At Thu, 28 Jan 2010 23:19:16 -0500, Xiao-Yong Jin <xj2...@columbia.edu> wrote: > > Hi, > > Lately I stumbled upon AsciiDoc[1], which uses > ASCIIMathML[2] or LaTeXMathML[3] to export math formulae in > XHTML documents.
