However, your code looks fine in my Firefox window, but FF isn't rendering any of my MathML even close to correct (I can post a screen shot and my source if that will help). I compared your source to mine and there were differences between their "pre-headers" and their heads, so I changed mine to yours, but no improvement (for some obscure reason, doing so, in Amaya, "broke" all my non-breaking spaces in the body, at which point Amaya complained and wouldn't render anything after the first broken nbs; so I had to go back and repair those, and then Amaya rendered the source - incl. the new pre-head and head - fine, but upon refreshing in Firefox, I still saw the same old text w/out formatting).
