I just got a "malformed URL" error when I tried it - Moz1.5/Mdk9.1...  
:-/  Then I turned on "Internet Keywords" in the prefs, and I got to a 
Netscape search results page (ugh! no wonder it was turned off!)  I 
didn't think Mozilla pointed anything to netscape.com but there you go.

<rant ignore="please">
Did anyone actually read any of this so-called HTML tutorial?  Jeezum 
Crow!  What a load of baloney!  Describing the HTML elements as 
"commands", which have "parameters", what is that all about?  It also 
seems to have been written in 1998 and not updated since then... all 
those font tags!  It reminds me of the web tutorials they still use at 
Murdoch for B108.  Actually if you go to the guy's home page it reminds 
me of an average B108 assignment.  Resizeable frames and all...  and so 
many animated gifs!
