Peter Dietz commented on DS-635:
--------------------------------

Some of Items in our repository have scientific formulas in the metadata. We 
have been exploring how to render this. For instance in the metadata, it looks 
like: 

The positions of about 5000 spectral lines of $^{12}C_{16}O_{2}$ have been 
accurately measured with a multispectrum nonlinear least squares fitting 
$technique^{a}$.

The dollar-signs on the edge of a formula get rendered. Our local solution is 
to render Item titles, Item Display simple, but not Item Display full (and 
instead show the unrendered source).

I'm currently looking at what to do about Metadata that contains dollar signs, 
but isn't formulas. i.e. FDA approval of $0.03 pills vs $1.23 pills. In which 
case the dollar signs could accidentally get picked up and interpreted.

> I tried to include ( MathML / HTML ) code in descriptions (abstracts) JSPUI, 
> but in browsers is displayed only plain text. MathML is natively supported by 
> Firefox and Opera browser. I have a lot of articles with complex math 
> formulas in the abstracts. I think that MathML is more important than HTML5 
> for example.
