Mathematical/scientific formula display
Overview
This polyfill loads MathJax when MathML is detected on the page and the browser has inadequate MathML support.
Known issues
- Browsers that lack both MathML and SVG support (e.g., IE7 - IE9) will take longer to load MathML than browsers with either SVG or MathML support
- IE8 takes a lot longer to load MathML than either IE7 or IE9 (known MathJax reflow issue)
- Pages with a lot of complex formulas can take a few minutes to load on slow machines running IE8 (known MathJax issue)
Examples of simple formulas
Given the quadratic equation
, the roots are given by
.
