title: Auto-render Extension
original_id: autorender
---
This is an extension to automatically render all of the math inside of text. It
searches all of the text nodes within a given element for the given delimiters,
ignoring certain tags like `<pre>`, and renders the math in place.
## Usage
This extension isn't part of KaTeX proper, so the script needs to be included
(via a `<script>` tag) in the page along with KaTeX itself. For example,
using a CDN:
```html
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/katex@0.10.0-rc/dist/katex.min.css" integrity="sha384-D+9gmBxUQogRLqvARvNLmA9hS2x//eK1FhVb9PiU86gmcrBrJAQT8okdJ4LMp2uv" crossorigin="anonymous">
<script defer src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/katex@0.10.0-rc/dist/katex.min.js" integrity="sha384-HfSid88/k05FhUa2Qk7I3hgXARcblhK5ec5QB5hA4LGHh5+oqtrwKN9Ad5Rb8iZQ" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<script defer src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/katex@0.10.0-rc/dist/contrib/auto-render.min.js" integrity="sha384-yACMu8JWxKzSp/C1YV86pzGiQ/l1YUfE8oPuahJQxzehAjEt2GiQuy/BIvl9KyeF" crossorigin="anonymous"
onload="renderMathInElement(document.body);"></script>
```
> Above, the [`defer` attribute](https://developer.mozilla.org/en/HTML/Element/script#Attributes)
indicates that the script doesn't need to execute until the page has loaded,
speeding up page rendering; and the `onload` attribute calls
`renderMathInElement` once the auto-render script loads.
Alternatively, you can call the `renderMathInElement` when (or after) the
[`DOMContentLoaded` event](https://developer.mozilla.org/ko/docs/Web/Reference/Events/DOMContentLoaded)
fires on the document or in another deferred script.
This approach is useful for specifying or computing options, or if you don't
want to use a `defer` or `onload` attribute.
For example:
```html
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/katex@0.10.0-rc/dist/katex.min.css" integrity="sha384-D+9gmBxUQogRLqvARvNLmA9hS2x//eK1FhVb9PiU86gmcrBrJAQT8okdJ4LMp2uv" crossorigin="anonymous">
<script defer src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/katex@0.10.0-rc/dist/katex.min.js" integrity="sha384-HfSid88/k05FhUa2Qk7I3hgXARcblhK5ec5QB5hA4LGHh5+oqtrwKN9Ad5Rb8iZQ" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<script defer src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/katex@0.10.0-rc/dist/contrib/auto-render.min.js" integrity="sha384-yACMu8JWxKzSp/C1YV86pzGiQ/l1YUfE8oPuahJQxzehAjEt2GiQuy/BIvl9KyeF" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<script>
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function() {
renderMathInElement(document.body, {
// ...options...
});
});
</script>
```
## API
This extension exposes a single function, `window.renderMathInElement`, with
the following API:
```js
function renderMathInElement(elem, options)
```
`elem` is an HTML DOM element. The function will recursively search for text
nodes inside this element and render the math in them.
`options` is an optional object argument that can have the same keys as [the
object passed to `katex.render`](https://github.com/Khan/KaTeX/#rendering-options),
in addition to two auto-render-specific keys:
- `delimiters`: This is a list of delimiters to look for math. Each delimiter
has three properties:
- `left`: A string which starts the math expression (i.e. the left delimiter).
- `right`: A string which ends the math expression (i.e. the right delimiter).
- `display`: A boolean of whether the math in the expression should be
rendered in display mode or not.
The default value is:
```js
[
{left: "$$", right: "$$", display: true},
{left: "\\(", right: "\\)", display: false},
{left: "\\[", right: "\\]", display: true}
]
```
- `ignoredTags`: This is a list of DOM node types to ignore when recursing
through. The default value is
`["script", "noscript", "style", "textarea", "pre", "code"]`.
- `ignoredClasses`: This is a list of DOM node class names to ignore when
recursing through. By default, this value is not set.
- `errorCallback`: A callback method returning a message and an error stack
in case of an critical error during rendering. The default uses `console.error`.
The `displayMode` property of the options object is ignored, and is
instead taken from the `display` key of the corresponding entry in the
`delimiters` key.
The same `options.macros` object (which defaults to an empty object `{}`)
is passed into several calls to `katex.render`, so that consecutive equations
can build up shared macros by `\gdef`.
