Extends the Ad-Hoc HTML plugin by adding support for MathML tags.

This plugin is still in an early development stage. Please test it thoroughly and report errors!

External requirements: This plugin requires the following additional components that must be installed separately:

• Ad-Hoc HTML

Install the plugin using the Plugin Manager and the download URL above, which points to the latest version of the plugin. Refer to Plugins on how to install plugins manually.

In a simple example, you could add an inline maths expression as follows:

<math [style=inline]><msup><mi>x</mi><mn>2</mn></msup></math>

Of course, you could achieve the same result using some smart Unicode characters, like 𝑥². It becomes more interesting once you want to lay out more complex formulae. For more complex examples, please see the Ad-Hoc Plugins Tests page on my server.

Note: Browser-support for MathML has significantly improved in recent years, but is still not perfect. Please test your pages thoroughly before publishing complex formulae.

Please see the Ad-Hoc HTML plugin page for syntax information. In brief, all official MathML tags are supported and can be inserted as expected. However, there are special syntax rules for attributes:

• IDs are inserted with a # prefix (e.g. #myformula)
• Classes are just inserted without any prefixes or attribute names (e.g. no-print, etc.)
• Languages are prefixed with a : (e.g. :fr)
• All other attributes are enclosed in square brackets, without quotation marks (e.g. [display=inline])

This plugin follows a “strict” rule for attributes, as it only allows official and widely supported ones and checks for valid values and characters. All attributes that don’t match these rules are discarded.

There are currently no configuration settings for this plugin.

Note: This plugin is still under development and should be considered experimental and unfinished.
