I would like to see Server rendered png issues fixed before this. Simple images are better for various devices and browsers. But it will be better to allow users to force technology, if no other simple solutions possible. On Friday 03 May 2013 12:59 PM, Niklas Laxström wrote: What is the sta

I think it's a nice idea if to trigger such a suggestion. I would add something to it though. I'd add a timer that checks how long it takes to markup the page, and that when it detects that pages take extremely long to finish rendering with MathJax, automatically proposes to the user to 'switch bac
