To download the latest release, visit the Downloads web page. Read and study MathML Content in Braille MathML is a language for including mathematical content on web pages, enabling browsers to present math and science equations and formulas as they would appear on paper. Beginning with JAWS 16, JAWS has provided spoken, natural language descriptions of MathML expressions in Internet Explorer and Firefox using the same terms a teacher would use to explain them in a classroom without the need to install any third-party software applications or plugins. When you encounter MathML on a web page, JAWS describes the expression, followed by the message "Math Content." You can then press ENTER while focused on the expression to open the Math Viewer where you can use the ARROW keys to explore it in greater detail. Math expressions are also displayed with highlighting in the Math Viewer as they are spoken so sighted teachers can assist students that are using JAWS to study math. For students who find it more beneficial to study math using braille, JAWS 17 now also displays MathML content in braille using the popular Nemeth Braille code. If you are using a refreshable braille display and JAWS is configured for Contracted Braille, the message "Math" is displayed followed by the expression. If the expression is too long to fit on the display, you can use the panning buttons on your display to view the rest of it. Otherwise, if JAWS is set for Computer Braille, the message "Math" is displayed followed by a message stating that Contracted Braille must be enabled to view math content. When the Math Viewer is active, the entire expression remains on the display as you use the ARROW keys to navigate parts of the expression. However, the cursor (dots 7 and 8) moves to the start of the partial expression that gains focus. Pressing a cursor router over a term in the expression will also immediately move the cursor to the specific location and cause JAWS to speak and visually highlight the partial expression as if you moved to it with the ARROW keys. Note: Since Nemeth Braille is a system exclusive to English, MathML content can currently only be shown in braille if JAWS is configured for one of the English Contracted Braille output modes.
