Sphinx uses Docutils (http://docutils.sf.net) for the rst -> HTML conversion and a port of an early version of the Docutils LaTeX writer for export to LaTeX. The "math" directive and role were implemented as a Sphinx extension, because at that time Docutils did not support mathematical notation. This year, "math" directive and role were added to the developer version of Docutils, so that even without the Sphinx-math-extension, you can use (currently basic) math in your documents. The `Docutils todo list`_ describes the state of the art and a roadmap. .. _Docutils todo list: http://svn.berlios.de/viewvc/docutils/trunk/docutils/docs/dev/todo.txt Configuration is done different in Sphix vs. Docutils. Therefore, I don't know how the built-in math can be configured from Sphinx. >> The default mathjax_path is >> mathjax_url = ('http://cdn.mathjax.org/mathjax/latest/MathJax.js?' >> 'config=TeX-AMS-MML_HTMLorMML') > I had to write as below for Sphinx to compile my documentation: > mathjax_path = ('http://cdn.mathjax.org/mathjax/latest/MathJax.js? > config=TeX-AMS-MML_HTMLorMML') Yes, Sphinx uses the name mathjax_path (probably, because at the time the mathjax extension was written, no public mathjax server was available and the mathjax script expected to be on the local file system. However, as path and URL syntax differ (the default would not be a valid path name), I decided to name the configuration option mathjax-url.
