Configuring mathjax to stick to certain divs

Credit: @MarkS.Everitt

http://www.mathjax.org/docs/1.1/options/tex2jax.html

There is a configuration option, processClass: "tex2jax_process" The final configuration becomes:

tex2jax: {

inlineMath: [['$','$'], ['\\(','\\)']],'

ignoreClass: "[a-zA-Z1-9]*",

processClass: "math"

}
});

add class="tex2jax_ignore" to your document <body> tag, and then use class="tex2jax_process" on the containers for the parts of your page where you want to include mathematics. As others have pointed out, you can configure the class names to use for these features. E.g.

<script type="text/x-mathjax-config">
MathJax.Hub.Config({
  tex2jax: {
    inlineMath: [['$','$'],['\\(','\\)']],
    processClass: "mathjax",
    ignoreClass: "no-mathjax"
  }
});
</script>

Then your page would be

<html>
<head>
  ...
</head>
<body class="no-mathjax">
  ...
  <div class="mathjax">
  ... (math goes here) ...
  </div>
  ...
</body>
</html>

Hope that helps.
