jsMath plugin installed

Installed jsMath plugin, for using tex code directly in this wiki. Some problems seems to appear with previous text with .htaccess codes, but will fix later.

further notes: 2010 Apr. 21
I initially used jsMath to show math equations but then realized that mathJax is more up-to-date module for doing this (mathJax actually is de facto jsMath2.0). I then switched to mathJax.

MathJax works well with Chrome when you view this page. But then soon I found out that this is possible with only Chrome, not with Firefox nor IE. Since most of people visiting this site use Firefox, I started to try configuring but did not work with many different trials… then finally I found a solution for Firefox; upgrade it. The problem I had in viewing math equation was occurring with version 3.0x (on win32), and this does not happen and works well when version 3.6.3 is used. It was as simple as that. without thoughts, I was thinking that “My Firefox should be pretty new”.

The problem I encountered seems to be due to difference in the web-font loading settings. With IE, one better try to use at least IE9. I have not tired this yet, and probably will not because I have not seen any visitor using IE these days.

By the way, if you want to test if your browser is enabled with viewing math equation in cmci.embl.de, click the link below to test if it is possible.

a disadvantage after installing jsMath plugin is that the page loading became significantly slower than before.
