Bug #: 35480
Summary: Create an option for PNG+MathJax
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Math (texvc)
AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
ReportedBy: listenle...@gmail.com
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
A fourth rendering option "PNG+MathJax" could be interesting: Output a rendered
PNG but replace it by pure HTML with MathJax. This would have several
advantages:
* Users with incompatible browsers will see the rendered formula. (At least
when MathJax is configured properly.)
* Users with disabled JavaScript will see the rendered formula.
* The rendered formula is visible as soon as the image is downloaded which is
usually faster then MathJax' rendering for pages with many formulas.
Because of the first two points this option could even be used as default.
The only disadvantage I can see is the fact that both the images and the
JavaScript have to be downloaded, but since the JavaScript can be cached this
shouldn't be a big problem.
If you decide to close this bug as WONTFIX, then remove the code to extract the
TeX from an image in MathJax/extensions/wiki2jax.js.
