Firefox (and Mozilla, well Mozilla part should be removed since Firefox is now preferred), Opera and Konqueror can be seen as major browsers since they can really render any site. Dillo, links, lynx, w3m, etc. are light-weight browsers, they can't be seen as major browsers for obvious reasons... The current layout of the page is not bad and I don't see the need to add links, lynx, w3m to the table since we don't talk about them. I've no objection about adding something regarding Dillo, but we must be honest with the reader: Dillo cannot render correctly and be used on every websites around the world. > 2) An Entry for dillo and links is added > 4) some "ids" are added so that <xref> works properly > 5) A note of support for linux flash9 on -STABLE is added [...] This part is a bit "messy", it must be reworked and be sure it's working and stable. I have to do some tests. -- Marc
