do you know of a WYSIWYG equation editor, like DragMath, implemented in javascript/mathml or Flash?

I could embed DragMath as well, but I was wondering if there's a way to have a good WYSIWYG formula editor without requiring the users to run a Java applet.

Thanks!

Disclaimer: I'm working for Scolab on one of the editor listed below.

This list of MathML editors could help you: http://www.w3.org/Math/Software/mathml_software_cat_editors.html

I know these web-based editors and display engines:

  • FMath and MathMlEditor I met the guy maintaining this, he's great.
  • MathJax The author told me he wanted to build an editor in JavaScript. That would be awesome, but I don't know how far he is with it. He's capable.

Alfred's Equation Editor (AlfredEq) - This equation editor was developed by us for BuzzMath and is available for licencing.
