  Fonts for MathML-enabled Mozilla
MathML has over 2000 predefined entities, many of which are associated to various symbols used in mathematics and science.
Due to the fact that a browser is used by various users under different configurations, Mozilla's MathML engine doesn't make assumptions on the particular configuration that a viewer may have, and uses a greedy search when looking for the best glyph that fits in a certain situation.
Mathematica screenshot: this is the rendering obtained by instructing the MathML engine to use Mathematica fonts when a character is being stretched.

 OpenMath and MathML
MathML is a W3C Recommendation for the encoding of mathematics `on the web' which also includes mechanisms for encoding mathematical semantics.
Note that Content MathML has an essentially fixed mathematical range, the approximately 90 symbols specified (as empty elements) in the MathML DTD are designed to cover a range of mathematics roughly equating to the mathematics taught up to end of high school or first year at university.
In particular, Content MathML may be seen as a `shorthand' for a core set of mathematics that allows both presentation and semantics to be expressed in a concise manner.

Obviously, using MathML has the potential to be much much better than gifs for maths content.
Certianly a browser which has built in support for MathML and can render the content in the most appropiate way for the reader is by far the best solution.
The immediate advantage of being able to provide gifs / alt text as an inferior alternative presentation of maths is that it allows people using the current generation of browsers to have some access to the content, even when their browser does not have specific support.
