I don't know exactly what "supports it" means, but I know that in all browsers I've used (thatdoes not include Lynx), they either didn't pay attention to those tags, or if they did, they didn't do much useful with them. At best, they get put in some submenu where nobody will ever see them. I've asked for better support for such things in Galeon, but was basically ignored. It would be great to bind keys to "next", "up", "prev", "index", or have toolbar entries to follow those special links: you could then browse documents almost as well as with Info, but nobody in the webbrowsers world seems to understand.
