I was thinking I saw a demo of an Adobe product that did web equations rather
nicely -- interactive and all. It was at the IMACC meeting -- I am not sure
of the name of it-->something like mathview.

It required each browser to have a (free, I think) plugin. It was about $100
for the server or author license. Nice animated graphs --> you know the kind
like y=ax^2 where a automatically varies from -2 to 2.
