Re:MathML (Score 1)

I agree that MathML support in browsers is not what it could be. However, I feel the need to argue the case for our MathPlayer plugin. It works just fine and is as standards compliant as IE lets it be. There are guidelines for serving up MathML in a way that is compatible with both IE and FF on our website: www.dessci.com/mathplayer. While making IE properly display math takes downloading and installing a small plugin, makeing Firefox properly display math takes downloading and installing fonts. Do you think the poor student who can't see the math on pages cares which of these things they have to do? Finally, based on comments here, installing the fonts is the harder task of the two.
