<h2><a name="abstract" id="abstract"></a>Abstract</h2><p>This specification defines the Mathematical Markup Language, or <a name="td-mathml" id="td-mathml"></a>MathML. MathML is an XML application
for describing mathematical notation and capturing both its structure and
content. The goal of MathML is to enable mathematics to be served,
received, and processed on the World Wide Web, just as <a name="td-html" id="td-html"></a>HTML has enabled this functionality for
text.</p><p>This specification of the markup language MathML is intended
primarily for a readership consisting of those who will be developing
or implementing renderers or editors using it, or software that will
communicate using MathML as a protocol for input or output. It is
<em>not</em> a User's Guide but rather a reference document.</p><p>This document begins with background information on mathematical
notation, the problems it poses, and the philosophy underlying the
solutions MathML 2.0 proposes. MathML can be used to encode both
mathematical notation and mathematical content. About thirty of the
MathML tags describe abstract notational structures, while another
about one hundred and fifty provide a way of unambiguously specifying
the intended meaning of an expression. Additional chapters discuss how
the MathML content and presentation elements interact, and how MathML
renderers might be implemented and should interact with
browsers. Finally, this document addresses the issue of MathML
characters and their relation to fonts.</p><p>While MathML is human-readable, it is anticipated that, in all but
the simplest cases, authors will use equation editors, conversion
programs, and other specialized software tools to generate
MathML. Several versions of such MathML tools already exist, and
a number of others, both freely available software and commercial
products, are under development.</p></div><div>
<h2><a name="status" id="status"></a>Status of this Document</h2><p><em> This section describes the status of this document at the time
of its publication. Other documents may supersede this document. A
list of current W3C publications and the latest revision of this
technical report can be found in the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/">W3C technical reports index</a> at
http://www.w3.org/TR/.</em></p><p>
This is a revised edition of a document
that has been reviewed by W3C Members and other interested
parties and has been endorsed by the Director as a
<a href="http://www.w3.org/2003/06/Process-20030618/tr.html#RecsW3C">W3C
Recommendation</a>.
</p><p>
This document has been produced by the <a href="http://www.w3.org/Math/">W3C Math Working Group</a> as part of
W3C <a href="http://www.w3.org/Math/Activity">Math
Activity</a>.
The goals of the W3C Math Working Group are
discussed in the <a href="http://www.w3.org/Math/Documents/Charter2001.html"> W3C Math WG
Charter</a> (revised February 2000 and June 2001 from the original of 11
June 1998). A list of <a href="appendixi.html">participants in the W3C Math Working Group</a>
is available.
</p><p> The MathML 2.0 (Second Edition) specification was reviewed extensively during its development,
as provided by the W3C Process. During that period the W3C Math Working
Group participants encouraged implementation using the specification and comment on
it; a report on <a href="http://www.w3.org/Math/iandi/">Implementation and
Interoperability</a> experiences and issues has been made public. It is
intended that this will be updated from time to time by the continuing work of the
W3C that oversees the MathML 2.0 Recommendation. The W3C Math Activity
maintains a public Web page <a href="http://www.w3.org/Math/">http://www.w3.org/Math/</a>
which contains further background information.
</p><p>
The preparation of a Second Edition of the MathML 2.0 Specification
allows the revision of that document to provide a coherent whole
containing corrections to all the known errata and clarifications of
some smaller issues that proved problematic. It is not the occasion
for any fundamental changes in the language MathML 2.0. To clarify this a
<a href="./overview-d.html">diff-marked HTML version</a> of this Second Edition
is made available.
</p><p>Public discussion of MathML and issues of support through the W3C
for mathematics on the Web takes place on <a href="mailto:www-math@w3.org"> the public mailing list of the Math Working
Group</a> (<a href="http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-math/">list archives</a>).

</p><p>The basic structure of this document is the same as that of
the earlier MathML 2.0 Recommendation <a href="appendixk.html#MathML2">[MathML2]</a>, with
the addition of an index in the new Appendix L.
MathML 2.0 itself was a revision of the earlier W3C Recommendation MathML 1.01
<a href="appendixk.html#MathML1">[MathML1]</a>. It differed from it in that all chapters were updated and
two new ones and some appendices were added.
</p><p>Since MathML 1.01,
Chapters 1 and 2, which are introductory material, have been revised
to reflect the changes elsewhere in the document, and in the rapidly
evolving Web environment. Chapters 3 and 4 have been extended to
describe new functionalities added as well as smaller improvements of
material already proposed. Chapter 5 has been newly written to reflect
changes in the technology available. The major tables in Chapter 6
have been regenerated and reorganized to reflect an improved list of
characters useful for mathematics, and the text revised to reflect the
new situation in regard to Unicode. Chapter 7 has been completely
revised since Web technology has changed. A new Chapter 8 on the DOM for
MathML 2.0 has been added; the latter points to new appendices D and E for
detailed listings.</p><p>The appendices have been reorganized into normative and
non-normative groups. The material in Appendices D, E, G and L
was not present in MathML 1.01.
