Answer 2

I just ran across MathJax on Ajaxian:

MathJax seems to have a chance at being a practical solution that offers a high quality display of LaTeX and MathML math notation in HTML pages.

The output is remarkably beautiful, and it's all pure HTML and CSS, which makes it scalable and selectable. Performance is currently a bit sluggish, but this is recognized.

Answer 3

I'd take a good look at how the MediaWiki LaTeX support does it and borrow from there.

Answer 4

You could try the Online image generator for mathematical formulas for a start.

mathurl is a mathematical version of TinyURL.com. It allows you to reference LaTeXed mathematical expressions using a short url. For example, http://mathurl.com/?5v4pjw will show [LaTeX output Image] which you can then edit. More details on mathurl’s help page

Answer 5

Please check out this site for a way to create TeX documents without any software installed. You can then snippet the result image with any screen capture method and embed the resulting image into a any website.

Go to http://sharelatex.com

The software is free to use, but you need to register to create documents.

Answer 6

Update

As @hughes (and others) pointed out, the previous Google Chart API has been deprecated.

The example I wrote still works as of Sept 2015, but a new one shall be used now (documentation):

http://chart.googleapis.com/chart?cht=tx&chl=%5CLaTeX

Old answer

Google Chart can do it (Documentation):

http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?cht=tx&chl=%5CLaTeX

I'm using this with Google Docs, because it doesn't support math yet.
