At CSUN a few years ago, I asked about math support in the Firefox 
browser to the Mozilla group and to the Design Science group with the 
focus on assistive technology.  At the time, both companies expressed 
interest in such functionality, but that was about as far as the 
conversation actually got.

Otherwise, I am not aware of any other tool or application that supports

exposing the equation to AT in Firefox.

Take care,
Sean
