David's blog post on the new stix fonts prompted me to test replacing the standard fontset used by firefox to display MathML. To do that, follow the detailed instructions by R. Sidje on how to add the math font preference to your prefs.js

user_pref("font.mathfont-family", "STIXGeneral, STIXGeneral-Italic, STIXGeneral-Bold, STIXGeneral-BoldItalic");

Firefox MathML Install Fonts Message

When it is enabled, the message about installing STIX fonts will pop up when trying, for the first time, to load a page that includes mathml, e.g. Physical applications of the Gamma function. It also shows in the about:config configuration of firefox.
