Since the Web is driven by money people, you would think they would care about math, wouldnt you. Presumably Netscape share prices are manipulated in terms of mathematical formulae.... Look at it another way; we are all very concerned to be politically correct in terms of fonts, and if it was suggested that Icelandic (for instance) characters should be thrown out of fonts set, there would be a right to-do. But I wouldn't mind betting there are more people wanting to write maths and put it on the Web than there are people in Iceland _in toto_ Lets NOT go the way of desktop publishing, thank you. Put math in XS! Sebastian (not a mathematician of any kind) DSSSList info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/dsssl/dssslist
