Mathematical Formulae

Simple copy-and-paste of Math... not even working!

I recently had a very simple request… soooo simple: our user just wishes to copy the formula from Mathematica (which can copy it in MathML) and paste it on something that does web.

I just went around and tried… SeaMonkey should support that in editor and reader: copy a piece of HTML with MathML and paste it, didn’t even work… my 1/x became a place full of nbsps in three lines!

Copy-and-paste, licenses, and fair use

Recently, Bob Matthews posted a mathtype trick, something that was not new to me, but something that struck me this time: you can, now, copy-and-paste from Wikipedia, shown in a current browser, into MathType (so into Word or PowerPoint).

MUI at eds.activemath.org ?

Could eds.activemath.org please consider and explore a Mathematical User Interface(MUI) enabled as a service, in order to facilitate a somewhat more seamless integration of being able to input Mathematical content into Drupal, the currently chosen communication medium, or otherwise?
