Re: Math ML - Math expression

It has been a long time since I have used MathML but I seem to recall 
that there were two variants of MathML - the standard variant that most 
people used and a variant intended to make it easier for people reading 
the code to see what the expressions were. I seem to remember that LaTeX 
to MathML converters (e.g. MathJax) only did the former and not the latter.

Since some browsers seem to have dropped raw MathML support maybe 
MathJax and related technology need to be updated to make sure the 
equations can be read by screen readers, since (unless things have 
changed) LaTeX math notation is one of the more common ways math authors 
create mathematical equations for visual typesetting.

It has literally been a decade since I last needed to use MathML so I'm 
really out of touch on where it has gone. I do remember MathML syntax 
itself was so confusing I personally just always did it in LaTeX and 
used htlatex (I think that is what it was called) and just copied the 
generated MathML to HTML (and it most certainly wasn't very accessible)

Hopefully its easier now, I'll be reading some of the posts. Hopefully 
modern tools for doing it aren't based around Windows like a lot of 
accessibility tools are.
