Hi,

As user brought this up on the MathPlayer side.

If you don't know it, MathPlayer is a free IE plugin that renders MathML and
makes it accessible; it's also a component of several accessibility products.

MathJax is designed to detect the presence of MathPlayer automatically, but on
Wikipedia, this does not work right now. 

A workaround is to use the MathJax menu to manually switch rendering to "native
MathML" -- but this is very hard for visually impaired users. 

In other words, while Wikipedia could be providing accessible math through
MathJax+MathPlayer, it doesn't right now.

Hope we can work together to fix this.
Peter.
