It would be better to provide an XSLT. The XSL could handle things like keystrokes by associating javascript actions with markup (eg: nodes). Does that mean we would not have to ask the Mozilla/Galeon developers to do anything, but that the XSLT file would provide all that is needed? If so, this sounds like an excellent idea, since it would mean that the documentation on remote Web sites could be navigated through, searched, and read nearly as easily as Info documentation locally. I would especially like to see keystrokes for navigation, like `M-s' for the equivalent of `Info-search', n, p, u, and spacebar. Then I could read a great deal that is remote from my machine and, as a consequence, from me. -- Robert J.
