Show Openmath on a webpage

I am surprised that I can not answer this question. If it was closed, please let me know.

I am currently using the MathDox formula editor ( here ) so that users can directly manipulate equations on a web page. The editor works by allowing interaction with the canvas, which then saves the equations in a text field in the OpenMath xml format. Then I save the OpenMath XML file in my database.

I would like to take my saved OpenMath and open it as a non-interactive display for users viewing their own work or the work of others. I think that MathML is usually the data carrier for equations and that it is more easily handled by Firefox, but the conversion mechanism of the MathML editor is not fully debugged, so I would prefer to use OpenMath if possible. I have seen people use xml style sheets for MathML displays, and it seems that there may be plugins for converting xml to canvas.

Am I right? What display method should I use?

If you go from OpenMath to canvas, you have to implement the whole Math Layout mechanism, which is a lot of work. Almost all of OpenMath on the web is converted to Presentation MathML for rendering. MathML is a standard part of html5 and is supported in versions of Firefox Safari for developing Safari and to a limited extent in Opera, it also works in IE with MathPlayer. XSLT browser is freely available on the openmath website for this conversion, you can see the effect on any of the OpenMath CDs, such as
