literallayout equation

After a few off-list emails, Mr. Dick Hamilton has traced
the
invisible MathML inside of <literallayout>s to line
breaks that occur
inside the <math> element. The stylesheets are
inserting <br> tags
inside the MathML which confuses FireFox, making the MathML
invisible
(though still accessible via right click + view MathML).
Apparently,
this behavior would be rather difficult to modify. Since I
generate my
equations with a script, I will be changing my script to not
use any
line breaks in its XML output.

My thanks to Mr. Hamilton!
