HTML5 - MathML
The new HTML5 syntax allows for MathML elements to be made use of inside an HTML document using the <math>...</math> tags.
Many web browser can display the <math> tag. If your browser does not have support for MathML, then we would suggest that you use the newest version of Firefox.
MathML Examples
The example below is a valid HTML5 document with MathML −
<!doctype html> <html> <head> <meta charset = "UTF-8"> <title>Pythagorean theorem</title> </head> <body> <math xmlns = "http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mrow> <msup><mi>a</mi><mn>2</mn></msup> <mo>+</mo> <msup><mi>b</mi><mn>2</mn></msup> <mo> = </mo> <msup><mi>c</mi><mn>2</mn></msup> </mrow> </math> </body> </html>
Using MathML Characters
Look at the following, this is the markup which makes use of the characters & InvisibleTimes:
<!doctype html> <html> <head> <meta charset = "UTF-8"> <title>MathML Examples</title> </head> <body> <math xmlns = "http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mrow> <mrow> <msup> <mi>x</mi> <mn>2</mn> </msup> <mo>+</mo> <mrow> <mn>4</mn> <mo></mo> <mi>x</mi> </mrow> <mo>+</mo> <mn>4</mn> </mrow> <mo>=</mo> <mn>0</mn> </mrow> </math> </body> </html>
If cannot see a proper result like x2 + 4x + 4 = 0, then make use of Firefox 3.5 or a higher version.
Matrix Presentation Examples
Look at the following example that would be used to represent a very simple 2x2 matrix −
<!doctype html> <html> <head> <meta charset = "UTF-8"> <title>MathML Examples</title> </head> <body> <math xmlns = "http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mrow> <mi>A</mi> <mo>=</mo> <mfenced open = "[" close="]"> <mtable> <mtr> <mtd><mi>x</mi></mtd> <mtd><mi>y</mi></mtd> </mtr> <mtr> <mtd><mi>z</mi></mtd> <mtd><mi>w</mi></mtd> </mtr> </mtable> </mfenced> </mrow> </math> </body> </html>
