   Format: MarkdownItexAnonymous Coward (128.83.114.62) (Jacques Distler at UT-Austin?) has added a diagram at [[homotopy+coherent+diagram#examples]] It is directly in-line SVG with MathML embedded as `foreignObject`s. It displays correctly for me in FireFox, but in Chrome MathJax is used to alter it for display and the display is incorrect. Is this an experiment and is someone working on getting MathJax to handle this correctly? From my past ruminations one really wants SVG diagrams as separate files and included as `<image>`s or `<object>`s to deal with name-space issues - the SVG instances can contain `id`s or CSS rules that conflict with each other or the host HTML. I don't know if MathJax can look at internal `image`s or `object`s and mung them to display correctly. The correct approach may be to run MathJax when the MathML in SVG is created to convert it to pure SVG (though maybe not to the extent that fonts are replaced with character outlines). This would also help if one is trying to generate PDF from a nLab page. There exist utilities to convert SVG to PDF but I haven't found any that handle `foreignObject`s much less MathML.
