Oh, I'm old enough to remember the Chrome auto-update that broke 
standard HTML links! It was such a pain supporting it in the 
first few years, while IE and Firefox were both working pretty 
well at the time.

But, like I just said in the other post, Firefox has near-zero 
support for being embedded in other applications. If you know of 
a way that we could reasonably use from D, let me know, but the 
only time I've seen an embedded Gecko is actually in the Wine 
project... and this had no other way to access it that I could 
find.

Mozilla has closed *dozens* of bugs that affect me directly as 
WONTFIX, including fairly simple to fix regressions. That's why I 
can't use it anymore.

If you wanna work on my other engine to bring it up to spec, feel 
free lol, but the screenshots speak to the functionality gap...
