How would that apply to, say, a mathematics forum implemented in HTML5 that allows users to include MathML in their forum posts? Or a Wiki implemented in HTML5 for use cross-institutuions for math professors to collaborate? Or...? -Mike Schinkel http://www.mikeschinkel.com/blogs/ http://www.welldesignedurls.org/
