Attention
Version 3 is now the current version of MathJax. This document is for version 2.
Browser Compatibility
Extensive browser support is an important goal for MathJax. At the same time, MathJax does require a certain minimum level of browser functionality.
Our extensive MathJax test suite tests every MathJax release for regressions on all major browsers.
Please comment in the MathJax User Group or file issues on GitHub if you notice inaccuracies or problems.
It usually helps to add screenshots for which we suggest services such as browsershots.org, saucelabs.com, or browserstack.com.
