Bug #: 28430
Summary: math must always be left-to-right, even when rendered
as HTML
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Normal
Component: texvc
AssignedTo: [email protected]

Classification: Unclassified
Math formulas are always left-to-right (LTR), even in right-to-left languages.
In PNG rendering this works correctly, but in HTML rendering the formula may
appear reversed. For example, <math>^{355}/_{113}</math> will look in HTML
rendering as 113/355, even though it should be 355/113. Since "HTML if very
simple or else PNG" is the default preference, this makes many formulas appear
incorrectly in RTL wikis.
When HTML rendering is used, span dir="ltr" or style="direction: rtl" must be
applied to the formula.
