<p>Danaleeling: Authors will learn and use MathMl, SVG in web pages</p> <hr /> <div>I hand author MathMl and SVG in XHTML pages. Most recently FireFox 3 added the ability to display [http://www.comfsm.fm/~dleeling/tech/mathml-in-svg.xhtml mathml in svg in xhtml] - nested XML namespaces. The languages can and will be learned by many like me who generate math and science materials for academic web sites. Since I author HTML5 using essentially HTML 4.01 strict standards, I can fairly easily shift from an HTML5 compliant document to an XHTML+MathMl+SVG compliant document. This is neither hard nor scary. I suspect the real issue is the draconian error handling that XHTML+MathMl+SVG brings with it, and may be why many authors want to see MathMl and SVG namespaces in HTML. That is an implementor issue, however, and not a language issue. It seems to this naive person that an implementor could choose other options besides a &quot;yellow screen of death&quot; simply because an img tag was not closed/terminated properly.</div>
