Dear devs,
What do you think if we start supporting mathjax on the html webpages?
Please read more on mathjax here: http://www.mathjax.org/
And then we should be able to add formulas on our html page with:
$\frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!} = \binom{n}{k}$
To do this we should modify the header in the manual html pages.
Any thoughts?

The main drawbacks of doing so are:
1. It's likely to mess up the nroff manual pages which are generated
from the HTML versions (unless someone's planning on adding code to
g.html2man to recognise the mathjax portions and re-write them using
eqn syntax).
2. It won't work with HTML viewers which don't support JavaScript
(AFAICT, the wx.html control used by wxGUI doesn't). Or images (e.g.
lynx/links).
3. Network access is required to read the manual pages, even when
stored locally. This also has privacy implications.
