What's New in MathJax v2.7
|
|
|
**************************
|
|
|
|
|
|
MathJax v2.7 is primarily a bug-fix release with over 60 important bug fixes, in particular to the CommonHTML output. In addition, this release adds several new features as an opt-in. The following are some of the highlights.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features
|
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
|
|
* *Accessibility improvements.* After the completion of the MathJax Accessibility Extensions, we are integrating the opt-in for the MathJax menu into the core distribution. We are grateful to the web accessibility community for their guidance, support, and feedback in our efforts towards making MathJax completely accessible to all users. This allows end-users to opt into the following features via the MathJax Menu:
|
|
|
|
|
|
* *Screenreader compatibility.* The new ``AssistiveMML`` extension enables compatibility with most MathML-capable screenreaders by inserting visually-hidden MathML alongside MathJax's visual output. See :ref:`screenreader support <screenreader-support>` for details on the expected behavior as well as background on the limitations due to lack of web standards and browser/OS technology.
|
|
|
* *Accesssible UI.* We have improved the accessibility of the MathJax menu to enable assistive technology users to easily access its features, cf. :ref:`MathJax UI <mathjax-ui-a11y>`.
|
|
|
* *Improved CommonHTML output.* After its initial release as a full-featured output in v2.6.0, the CommonHTML received several major improvements enhancing the quality of its layout, in particular its stability when rendering server-side using mathjax-node.
