RH and LH Double-Quotes in MathJax

[Ackbach]

Anyone know how to do handed double-quotes in Mathjax? I know how to do it in normal $\LaTeX$, but the code

$$\frac{d}{dx}\,f(x)\;\text{``is one notation''}$$

yields

$$\frac{d}{dx}\,f(x)\;\text{``is one notation''}$$

So that doesn't quite work like it normally does in $\LaTeX$. The alternative

$$\frac{d}{dx}\,f(x)\;\text{"is one notation"}$$

yields

$$\frac{d}{dx}\,f(x)\;\text{"is one notation"}$$

So that doesn't work, either. How to do this?

You can use \unicode command to produce the proper character.

\unicode{x201C}\text{Hello Ackbach!''}

will give

$\unicode{x201C}\text{Hello Ackbach!''}$

Wow, that is a hack. But it works! Thanks much.

Hi Ackbach, :)

I asked this question from the MathJax community and here is the reply.

Kind Regards,

Their unicode method does work: \unicode{x201C} \text{ some text }\unicode{x201D}

\( \unicode{x201C} \text{ some text }\unicode{x201D} \)

Concur with CB - I would add that the unicode method seems to be the only method that works.
