jsMath

jsMath might be a good alternative to graphics for the
display of LaTeX, Axiom and Reduce output on the MathAction
wiki.

See for example
"jsMathExperiment":http://page.axiom-developer.org/zope/mathaction/jsMathExperiment
which contains some output generated by Axiom.

This might also be a good alternative to use with a
stand-alone browser interface to Axiom.

The jsMath package provides a method of including mathematics
in HTML pages that works across multiple browsers for both
Windows and the Macintosh. It overcomes a number of the
shortcomings of the traditional method of using images to
represent mathematics: jsMath uses native fonts, so they
resize when you change the size of the text in your browser,
they print at the full resolution of your printer, and you don't
have to wait for dozens of images to be downloaded in order to
see the mathematics in a web page. There are also advantages
for web-page authors, as there is no need to preprocess your
web pages to generate any images, and the mathematics is
entered in TeX form, so it is easy to create and maintain your
web pages.

For example:

http://moodle.org/ Moodle (course management software) uses jsMath

http://webwork.math.rochester.edu/ WebWork (Twiki-based) uses jsMath
