Oh, sorry.  When blooberry lists a browser as supporting something
it's assumed to be in all later versions of the browser unless explicitly
declared otherwise.  :-)

Well, since IE holds around 60% of the market I have to keep track
of what is and is not supported by the various browsers when creating
PmWiki releases.  But for a personal browsing environment (which is what 
you were initially talking about) this would already be very useful
in a Netscape, Opera, or similar browser.  :-)
