mathjax with table

[kal_e...@yahoo.com]

I have a table where I am trying to include mathjax. The user should be able to type latex into a cell and it displays properly. Currently, it will display properly for the first latex equation entered into a cell however, if I type another equation into a different cell then it will display same answer in both cell.

Example: 

user enters \pi into cell 1. 

cell 1 gets rendered.

cell 1 displays pi.

user enters \frac {1} {2} into cell 1

cell 1 gets rendered.

cell 1 displays \frac {1} {2}

user enters \frac {pi} {4} into cell 2

cell 1 and cell 2 re-render and display \frac {pi} {4}

this is my current code:

<div id="MathOutput" style="display:none;">$${}$$

  </div>

//called whenever user enters formula into a cell

MathEnteredInCell = function (formula)

  {

  MathJax.Hub.queue.Push( function ()

  {

  math = MathJax.Hub.getAllJax("MathOutput")[0];

  } );

 

     MathJax.Hub.queue.Push(["resetEquationNumbers", MathJax.InputJax.TeX], ["Text", math, "\\displaystyle{" + formula + "}"]);

    

    return $('#MathOutput').html();

  };

I tried to copy MathOutput and then return the copy and remove() MathOutput but that doesn't work either. I don't want to put a div into every cell. Am i doing this completely wrong? I am new to mathjax

Anyone have ideas ?

I guess the problem is that whenever I change the value in 1 cell. The entire page is re-rendered so all the cells get the most recent value from MathOutput. Can I set MathJax to only render the cell currently being modified instead of the entire page?

Hi,

You might want to add a live example of what you've tried via jsbin, codepen etc.

Regards,

Peter.
