<math> - MathML 编辑
The top-level element in MathML is <math>
. Every valid MathML instance must be wrapped in <math>
tags. In addition you must not nest a second <math>
element in another, but you can have an arbitrary number of other child elements in it.

In addition to the following attributes, the <math>
element accepts any attributes of the <mstyle>
element.
- class, id, style

XHTML notation
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1 plus MathML 2.0//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Math/DTD/mathml2/xhtml-math11-f.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title>MathML in XHTML</title> </head> <body> <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mrow> <mrow> <msup> <mi>a</mi> <mn>2</mn> </msup> <mo>+</mo> <msup> <mi>b</mi> <mn>2</mn> </msup> </mrow> <mo>=</mo> <msup> <mi>c</mi> <mn>2</mn> </msup> </mrow> </math> </body> </html>
Notes: XHTML documents with MathML must be served as application/xhtml+xml
. You can achieve that easily by adding the .xhtml
extension to your local files. For Apache servers you can configure your .htaccess
file to map extensions to the correct Mime type. Since you notate your MathML in an XML document, also be sure you write a well-formed XML document.

Browser compatibility
BCD tables only load in the browser
Firefox-specific notes
Firefox 7 introduced support for accepting all MathML attributes on the top-level math element (i.e. the same behavior as a <mstyle>
element). However, the displaystyle
attribute was not taken into account and has been added in Firefox 8.
A textual fall-back (alttext
) or referring to an alternative image using the attributes altimg
, altimg-width
, altimg-height
or altimg-valign
is currently not implemented in Firefox.
