Some things work for me, but not all. For instance \in doesn't display, nor do some of the font changes. Too much is missing for this to be really useful. I am running Mozilla 1.7, but I will be reluctantly updgrading to the latest Firefox soon (or Seamonkey if Firefox annoys me too much). Reluctant because Firefox seems to be a worse interface than Mozilla, just like KDE is a worse interface than FVWM.
I may be a curmudgeon, but I still miss Mosaic's "Clone this page" feature, even if there's nothing else about Mosaic I miss. I switched to Netscape in '96 and to Mozilla in '03. The Netscape->Mozilla transition was not too painful.
