+LyX and the World Wide Web
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+LyX has long supported the export of documents to various web-friendly formats,
+ such as HTML.
+ Before verson 1.7, however, HTML export was always accomplished by the use
+ of external converters.
+\begin_inset Foot
+status collapsed
+
+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+For details on the use of external converters with LyX, see the
+\size normal
+\emph on
+Converters
+\emph default
+ section of the Customization manual.
+\end_layout
+
+\end_inset
+
+ These fall into two large groups: there are converters that use LaTeX as
+ an intermediate format, such as
+\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
+status collapsed
+
+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+htlatex
+\end_layout
+
+\end_inset
+
+,
+\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
+status collapsed
+
+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+html2latex
+\end_layout
+
+\end_inset
+
+, and
+\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
+status collapsed
+
+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+plastex
+\end_layout
+
+\end_inset
+
+, relying upon LyX to produce the LaTeX; and there is a converter that works
+ directly on LyX files,
+\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
+status collapsed
+
+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+eLyXer
+\end_layout
+
+\end_inset
+
+.
+ All of these have different advantages and disadvantages.
+
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+The LaTeX-based converters have the advantage that, in principle, they know
+ everything about the exported document that LaTeX does.
+ Such converters do not care, for example, if a certain block of code was
+ produced by LyX or was Evil Red Text.
+ They know about
+\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
+status collapsed
+
+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+aux
+\end_layout
+
+\end_inset
+
+ files, counters, and references, and can often make use of the
+\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
+status collapsed
+
+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+bbl
+\end_layout
+
+\end_inset
+
+ files generated by BibTeX.
+ On the other hand, LaTeX is a very hard language to parse---it is sometimes
+ said that only TeX itself understands TeX---and LaTeX-based converters
+ will often choke on what seem to be quite simple constructs; complex ones
+ can throw them completely, and as of this writing, for example, the
+\emph on
+Embedded Objects
+\emph default
+ manual will not export with
+\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
+status collapsed
+
+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+htlatex
+\end_layout
+
+\end_inset
+
+, though the others will.
+ The other issue concerns how math is handled.
+ These converters typically convert the formulae into little pictures that
+ are then linked from the HTML document.
+ Since these are actually generated by LaTeX, they are accurate.
+ But they do not scale well, and just getting them to look as if they are
+ actually meant to be in your document---so that the font sizes seem to
+ be roughly the same---can be a challenge.
+\end_layout

+\begin_layout Standard
+Alex Fernandez's
+\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
+status collapsed
+
+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+eLyXer
+\end_layout
+
+\end_inset
+
+ solves some of these problems.
+ In particular, its rendering of math tends to look better than
+\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
+status collapsed
+
+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+htlatex
+\end_layout
+
+\end_inset
+
+'s, at least in simpler cases, since it renders math using a neat combination
+ of HTML and CSS rather than converting the formulae to images.
+ But more complex formula tend to be rendered less well than with
+\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
+status collapsed
+
+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+htlatex
+\end_layout
+
+\end_inset
+
+, since there is no reasonable way of scaling parentheses in HTML, for example.
+ More importantly (as of version 0.39, at least),
+\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
+status collapsed
+
+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+eLyXer
+\end_layout
+
+\end_inset
+
+ has no support for math macros, for user-defined paragraph or character
+ styles, or for tables of contents and figures.
+ These limitations make
+\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
+status collapsed
+
+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+eLyXer
+\end_layout
+
+\end_inset
+
+ unsuitable for many of the documents more advanced LyX users would produce.
+ In principle, of course, all of these problems could be solved, but the
+ LyX developers have decided to follow a different path and made LyX itself
+ capable of writing XHTML, just as it is capable of writing LaTeX, DocBook,
+ and plaintext.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+As of this writing, XHTML output remains under development and should probably
+ be regarded as

+.

+
+\end_inset
+
+, usually contains up-to-date information about the state of XHTML output.
+\end_layout
+
+\end_inset
+
+ Still, the developers have chosen this approach because it has several
+ potential advantages over the other two.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+These advantages are primarily due to the fact that the XHTML output routines,
+ since they are part of LyX, know everything LyX knows about the document
+ being exported.
+\begin_inset Foot
+status collapsed
+
+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+Another advantege is that, since these routines are internal to LyX, they
+ are immune to changes in LyX's file format, or to changes in the semantics
+ of existing insets.
+\end_layout
+
+\end_inset
+
+ So they know about the table of contents (as displayed in the Outline),
+ about the counters associated with different paragraph styles, and about
+ user-defined styles.
+ The XHTML output routines know what LyX knows about internationalization,
+ too, so they will output
+\begin_inset Quotes eld
+\end_inset
+
+Chaper 1
+\begin_inset Quotes erd
+\end_inset
+
+ or
+\begin_inset Quotes eld
+\end_inset
+
+
+\lang ngerman
+Kapitel
+\lang english
+ 1
+\begin_inset Quotes erd
+\end_inset
+
+, depending upon the language in effect at the time.
+
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+Quite generally, the output routines know everything LyX knows about document
+ layout, that is, about the document is to be rendered on screen.
+ We can use this information when we output the document as XHTML.
+ In particular, LyX
+\emph on
+automatically
+\emph default
+ generates CSS style information corresponding to the layout information
+ it uses to render the document on screen: if section headings are supposed
+ to be sans-serif and bold as seen in LyX, then (by default) they will be
+ sans-serif and bold when viewed in a web browser, too.
+ And this is true not just for pre-defined styles, like Section, but for
+ any style, including user-defined styles.
+ Indeed, the XHTML output routines make no distinction between user-defined
+ paragraph and character styles and LyX's own pre-defined styles: in each
+ case, everything LyX knows about the styles is contained in the layout
+ files.
+ And much the same is true as regards pre-defined textual insets, such as
+ footnotes, and custom versions.
+
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+The result is that XHTML output can be customized and extended in
+\emph on
+exactly
+\emph default
+ the same way LaTeX output can be customized and extended: through layout
+ files and modules.
+ See chapter five of the
+\emph on
+Customization
+\emph default
+manual for the details.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+As for math, LyX renders math using MathML.
+ This has advantages and disadvantages.
+ The advantage is that MathML is a dialect of XML designed specifically
+ for mathematics on the web, and it typically renders very well in browsers
+ that support it.
+ The first disadvantage is that not all browsers support MathML, and support
+ is not complete even in the Gecko-based browsers, such as Firefox.
+ A second disadvantage, as compared to rendering math by images, is that
+ LyX can only output MathML for LaTeX constructs that it knows about, which
+ means that the use of ERT in math---e.g., the command
+\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
+status collapsed
+
+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+
+\backslash
+BGassert
+\end_layout
+
+\end_inset
+
+ from the
+\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
+status collapsed
+
+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+begriff.sty
+\end_layout
+
+\end_inset
+
+ package---will produce nothing helpful.
+ Eventually, therefore, LyX will offer the user the option to use MathML
+ or images, and it will offer this choice on a case by case basis.
