Is it possible to retrieve (preferably via the
MediaWiki API) an image
representing a mathematical formula given in the <math> tags that are
frequently encountered in Wikipedia articles ?
There's no direct way to do
this, although I guess it could be
implemented. A workaround would be to do something like
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=parse&text=<math>\gamma=…
, which will give you the HTML generated for this <math> tag, which
could be an image (like in this case), or HTML if the formula is
sufficiently simple (try a^2+b^2=c^2 for instance).
