Take for example the power function rendered using msup there is no visible rendering of the power function at all, only of its arguments. So if you are trying to make a highly linked rendering with links from the function to its definition, probably you would need to modify the presentation of power in some way such that their is a visible representation of the function. Using mfrac for divides is rather similiar, although the fraction line gives you a hope of being able to interact with the head of the function term, as discussed using links (if we are using html style href or simple xlink for linking) to denote the correspondence is always going to be fragile as the hypertext links don't nest. It is of course possible to use attributes to make the semantic correspondence, it is making that linking into a hypertext traversal that is problematic (whatever the markup) David ________________________________________________________________________ The Numerical Algorithms Group Ltd is a company registered in England and Wales with company number 1249803.
