A Moodle plugin developed to help people search for mathematical equations that are displayed in a course forum. Just pass the mouse over an equation and click on Search. The selected equation is searched using the search engine SearchOnMath. It uses jquery and qtip.

Important!

In order to allow full compatibility, is necessary to change some settings in the MathJax editor present on Moodle settings.

HTTP MathJax URL: http://cdn.mathjax.org/mathjax/latest/MathJax.js?config=TeX-AMS-MML_HTMLorMML
