A quick google suggests it isn't ready for including on general web pages just yet, but it might work for a presentation if you control the displaying brower. Could S5+MathML could be the way to go in the future though. PS - thanks for the links to ADVI and WhizzyTeX - I hadn't seen those before. What about MathML?

However, it still doesn't solve the `equation' problem in any way. While I have an equation or ten on every second page of my presentations, I'll have to stick with LaTeX. I've found that <a href="http://pauillac.inria.fr/advi/">ADVI</a> along with the Emacs <a href="http://pauillac.inria.fr/whizzytex/">WhizzyTeX</a> mode is dynamic enough at both the editing as well as the presentation levels that it helps overcome the image positioning problem.
