Just saw this in the mathjax discussion:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Nageh/mathJax

which arguably would allow one to reskin one's Moodle Docs  (mediawiki) account to afford one access to mathjax and jsxgraph.

I did a quick test and was not successful but frankly I am not sure how HQ cobbled up the user pages as it looks like there may be a separate user page for each version of the docs (yack) and I do not have the time to play at the moment.....

At the same time there is work being done to incorporate MathJax formally

and one hopes that access to mathjax and jsxgraph will eventually be simple to manage without using greasemonkey or such.

Moodle Doc users who have a Moodle Doc account (free to all) can now select MathJax from their user preferences at the bottom of the Appearance page

Re: MathJax in Moodle Docs [ASCIIMathML too]

by Marc Grober -

By the way (I suppose I should not hgide this here,  but what the hell), Moodle Docs can now also support ASCIIMathML with a quick tweak wink

Now that MathJax has an input jax for ASCIIMathML (http://www.mathjax.org/docs/2.0/asciimath.html) ,  all that needs to happen is that appropriate delimiters and appropriate Hub configuration be set in the MathJax wikipedia plugin

Presently, the plugin uses the Tex-AMS-MML_HTMLorMML.js configuration file. The Devs need only alter the configuration file Tex-MML-AM_HTMLorMML.js and ASCIIMathML will work throughout Moodle Docs.
