Mathematical formulae in new dimension
Tuesday, 19. June 2007, 12:39:54
One should be crazy to expect mobile browsers to be able to render mathematical formulae, especially when most of desktop browsers fail miserably on any kind of mathematical markup. But is seems that things look completely differently when you look at them from a higher dimension.
Upcoming new version of Opera Mini turned out to be capable of handling complex inline layouts, including CSS formatted math formulae. It managed to handle quite sophisticated stress tests much better then some of its desktop friends do.

However rendering MathML by applying XSLT or through UserJS should be relatively easy as from formatting point of view rendering engine has basic functionality needed to handle MathML layout schemata, but since this functionality is exposed through CSS that is not particularly keen in styling MathML-like markup where order of elements in markup does not necessarily match their inflow order, Kesterel (well, in this case its Opera Mini that uses the same engine on server side) can't handle MathML natively.
