Server-side ASCIIMath input demo

This demo shows my ASCIIMathParser.js running outside its traditional browser environment.

Try it

Enter an ASCIIMath math expression in the box below and hit "Submit" to send it to the server for conversion to MathML:

Technical notes

There is not much to this demo at all. The ASCIIMath input you enter is sent to a Java servlet. This runs the ASCIIMathParser.js on it, using the Rhino JavaScript engine, and the resulting MathML is sent back to be flashed in front of your eyes. There is no JavaScript running in the browser here at all.
