Thanks, Johan, but it still doesn't work as advertised, at least not on 
w32 version 22.1
M-x browse-url-at-point brings up the web page in Firefox and 
View>PageSource shows the code, but if I try C-x C-f 
http://en-us.www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/about/
I get an empty buffer named c:/en-us.www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/about/

Then I tried other web pages and some filled the buffer with html and 
others didn't. Shouldn't there be some minimal block of html code on any 
page?
