It handles graphics 24 context management, surface/buffer binding, and 25 rendering synchronization and enables high-performance, 26 accelerated, mixed-mode 2D and 3D rendering using other 27 Khronos APIs. </p> 28 <p> The reference pages describe EGL 1.4, but can be used 29 with earlier versions since each page notes when 30 features are available only starting with specific older 31 versions (1.2, 1.3, and 1.4). </p> 32 <p> A more detailed overview of EGL functionality and 33 technical concepts can be found in the <a 34 target="pagedisplay" href="eglIntro.html">eglIntro</a> 35 page. </p> 36 </div> 37 <div class="refsect1" id="description"> 38 <h2>Browser Compatibility</h2> 39 <p> The man pages are now generated in HTML5 format. Some 40 pages contain imbedded MathML and rely on 41 <a href="http://www.mathjax.org/">MathJax</a> to render 42 mathematical equations on browsers which do not natively 43 support MathML. This should work much better on Chrome, 44 Safari, and other browsers which don't support MathML. 45 </p> 46 <p> However, HTML5 isn't well supported on IE 8 or earlier 47 versions. We recommend you use a more recent browser for 48 viewing the man pages. </p> 49 </div> 50 <div class="refsect1" id="description"> 51 <h2>Downloading Man Page Sources</h2> 52 <p> The Docbook XML source for the man pages is available for 53 anonymous checkout in Khronos' Subversion server, and you 54 can build a man page distribution of your own using open 55 source tools. See the OpenGL.org technical Wiki pages 56 describing the <a 57 href="http://www.opengl.org/wiki/Getting_started/XML_Toolchain_and_Man_Pages"> 58 XML Toolchain and Man Pages</a> for more information. </p> 59 </div> 60 <div class="refsect1" id="description"> 61 <h2>Feedback</h2> 62 <p> If you find errors in the reference pages, please inform us 63 using <a href="https://www.khronos.org/bugzilla/">Khronos 64 Bugzilla</a>.
