Here's a Flash product that does MathML editing and rendering.  They have a
licensing option which includes source in which case you could port it to
Flex for internal use.

Subject: [flexcoders] Displaying Mathematical Formulas in Flex

I am the lead on a project that I really want to use flex on. 
However, I have a bit of a problem.  Without going into a great deal
of detail, I need to be able to generate and display mathematical
equations within flex (complicated ones).  

I had a few thoughts on the issue:

1.  If I could have an outside script that could create the equations
and save them as images, it would be fine.  However, it would have to
be web app - not a desktop one.  If there were a library for PHP's GD
Library or something like that.

2.  If there were a Flash Component that could generate the equation,
I could easily write a script to extract that data and save it in some
useful format.

3.  If I had to, I could leverage the browser and use the IFrame
concept first demonstrated by Christophe Conraets.  However, there is
still no widely supported way of displaying equations in HTML (yes, I
know about MathML - but it is still not fully supported in all
browsers without plugins).

I hope someone has an idea of how this could work best.
