OK, I reran the experiment, but on sagenb.org this time, and everything works as it should. Not sure what the problem was, but I guess my local configuration has shortcomings. I know my initital tests with jsMath a few months ago (outside of Sage) were problematic due to some problems with Firef

Thanks, William, for the reply. Might not have been 100% clear about what works and what doesn't. I can edit the text of simple demo worksheets by hand and get the "name=" plus the "#" constructions to move from one worksheet to another and land on the right location. I use tex4ht to translate

The book is open-source with a GFDL license, so no, there are no safeguards. In fact, changes are encouraged. ;-) Seriously though, I'm thinking each student would have a local copy, rather than a shared copy on a server. They could experiment with Sage within this copy, and perhaps annotate i

Are there safeguards in place to prevent a student from changing the contents of the book? Also, if the notebook itself is not user-changeable, at least temporarily, it would defeat the most of the purpose of making it the book inside a notebook. I'm not familiar enough with the notebook's authe

I think SageTeX deserves to have a more prominent place on the webpage and wiki - maybe I'm missing it but I don't see any links to it. When you (Dan) were first working on it, I tried to use it and failed but I just tried again (on a mac) and almost everything works for me, not using the imagema
