Many people are working on ways to make mathematical notation easier
to display on the web.
None of these methods is
without fault; most are in beta version, and most rely on the user (or web
page author) having particular software
and/or technical expertise. Don't let this
discourage you, however;
you might find an option here that suits your needs.
We recommend starting with the Swarthmore Summer Project for the Implementation of Mathematical
Software on the Web:
- SPIMSOW - Explore the capabilities of the new Web versions of Mathematica, Maple,
and MathView; with tutorials on configuring the software and on creating
your own Web notebooks using the software.
Special mark-up:
- WebEQ Equation
Rendering -
A java applet which processes math tags embedded in HTML code.
- MINSE -
Expressions specified in this system adapt to the type of media available.
- TTMath -
Uses HTML, TrueType Fonts, and TeX to achieve math symbols; readers must download font
package to view such pages.
- Hyperlatex -
An independent mark-up language which outputs both DVI and HTML files.
TeX-based:
Plug-ins:
- IBM
techexplorer -
A TeX and LaTeX viewer plug-in for Netscape and Internet Explorer. Windows only.
- Adobe Acrobat
Reader - Allows users to view, navigate, and print PDF files. Cross-platform.
- MathView -
Use this plug-in to view and interact with MathView files. From Waterloo
Maple.
- nDVI - A DVI viewer plug-in for Netscape. Unix only.
Other viewers:
- IDVI - A DVI viewer written in Java, which can be embedded in web pages.
- Mathbrowser -
A web browser designed for viewing Mathcad documents. Windows only.
