But it might be doable in some cases. Yes you are right, there is a way. We posted a spec about this feature at http://www.netfolder.com/SDK/index.htm. We intend to submit that as a IETF draft. Yes there is such a browser, you can download it at http://www.netfolder.com. It is not necessary to embed Meta content like a table of content in the HTML document. We think, that it is better to separate content an meta content. However it may in certain cases be preferable to include meta content information in the content. Take a look at the Meta Content Format specs and tell us what do you think. Does it do what you want? Your comments would be greatly appreciated.
