- Reply-to: xsl-list at lists dot mulberrytech dot com
I am pleased to be able to announce the first public release of a
stylesheet enabling the support of MathML in a variety of browsers.
Further details are available at the URI:
http://www.w3.org/Math/XSL/
The stylesheet allows conforming XHTML+MathML documents to be
rendered, without changing the document, in a range of browsers.
Basically the stylesheet detects the environment in which it is running and
inserts any <object>, <embed> or other browser-specific markup required.
If only presentation MathML rendering is available, it performs a
Content to Presentation transformation before passing the document to
the rendering engine.
This allows the document to be authored in a browser-independent
style.
Comments on the stylesheet are welcomed, and should be sent to the public
MathML list: www-math@w3.org

PS for the XSL-list version of this announcement:
If you are not interested in Mathematics
a) why not?
b) You might like to see this as a use of XSL as a dispatching mechanism
rather than a transformation (It's only really an annotated identity
transform)
c) You might like to amuse yourself spotting such well loved features as
the-language-known-as-xsl-in-ie5
disable-output-escaping
escaping to javascript
