HTML containing mathjax to MOBI?

Calibre does such a good job converting HTML to MOBI that, I consider the conversion done when I have obtained HTML files. However, I was wrong when I tried to convert HTML containing mathjax code. MathJax (http://www.mathjax.org/) is a popular solution for websites to display high quality math equations. Many math forums use it to display math equations. Also, LyX (a popular latex WYSIWYG editor) supports exporting to HTML containing mathjax (http://elyxer.nongnu.org/userguide.h...Subsection-2.8). The resulting HTML looks beautiful in firefox and chrome browsers on PC. However, when I tried to convert such HTML files into MOBI ebook using Calibre, all the math equations are gone. I understand this is probably due to the fact that those math equations are dynamically generated from online. I'm just thinking if only Calibre could somehow (magically) make those documents offline viewable, that would be great.
