Forum .LRN Q&A: Re: Latex/Tex Math formula support for dotLRN (and assessments?)

Hi,
i'm doing some researches in interactive maths via web.

A) one of the starting point in tex rendering support.
besides we could consider mathml support, but that is more something that could lie in the browser. (althought a tex plugin exists).

B) one other aspect is the possibility do insert tex/latex in the assessments

C) further on the possibility to have
1) calculated questions
2) integration with a backend CAS

about A) and B) i know for example moodle has a "filter" in place that parses "extra" markup "@@" or "$$" and renders content as gif. That could be the easy way, althought not efficient and... could it be readily implemented so that it should work for ALL content served (forum, ETP, what else?) ?

about C) i've been exploring stacker, based on moodle+maxima but that seems a bit further away...

Anyone likes to share their ideas on these issues ?

ps: nima could you please post about your tentative implementation ? the link you supplied 18 months ago doesn't work anymore...

Greetings
Michele
