What would be the correct approach, then?  Specifics wrt to files and classes 
would be helpful, since I don't know my way around the khtml code yet. ;)

I don't know.  In the documentation on w3c I didn't find any references to 
XHTML, and only found the following reference to HTML that might be of 
relevance:

"Translators and equation editors which can generate HTML pages where the math 
expressions are represented directly in MathML will be available soon."

What do you make of it?

Cheers,
Ellis
