From: David Cantrell Date: 10:36 on 21 Nov 2003 Subject: Every browser ever and MathML Over the weekend, I wrote a perl implementation of the serial correlation co-efficient. As part of the documentation, I want to point people at a nice rendering of the mathemagical formula, rather than just embedding a dodgy ASCII representation in the POD. MathML to the rescue, or so I thought. Except that it doesn't work in any browser I had access to except IE. Which, of course, sucks for other reasons.

Why not simply embed a LaTeX representation of the formula? Surely everyone can read LaTeX mathematical notation! Cheers, Philip

Embed a slightly-less-dodgy representation in Unicode; it's got the characters for it. Oh, wait. Then it would only work for the five people that are using programs with Unicode support. So many standards to choose from...

Not that I'm by any means demeaning your hate (for you have suffered enough to create hate, even if everything suddenly starts working now) but do you have a URL for your mathml? Mark.
