Hi Textmate fellows,
I've always been slightly jealous of emacs' auctex mode with previewing of images and equations in a TeX document. I understand the issue of dealing with fancy fonts in a source editor, but would it be possible to create a preview of parts of the code in the form of tooltips?
I've been thinking of that for a while, considering the use of latex2html to generate images, or the sleek LaTeXit freeware. These two would really slow down the process, as they call latex and generate images.
Now I think I've just found the ultimate tool:

This is by far the best math publishing solution I've seen on the web when it comes to including math on html pages (MathML, although promising, is really lacking support).

MathML isn't very user friendly either. But there's a much larger community for it (now) than jsMath. I keep my TeX installation updated/maintained via Fink (yeah, I'm lazy) so currently jsMath doesn't find the TeX fonts ... but jsMath looks promising, for a java script. Inline equation preview would be a cool addition to TM.
Best wishes

The Dialog 2, presently in the WIP branch at the repository, allows you to show HTML tool tips, so this would make it possible.
And the idea indeed sounds very good.
