OOOps  .. think I found the problem... I was aiming xemacs at w3 *.elc
files compiled with fsf emacs.

A little off the beaten path for ding ...:

The main reason I am experimenting with xemacs was to see if its
html-mode, and particularly C-c C-v `browse-url-of-buffer' and the
toggle C-c C-s that allows you to view edits immediately, would be
nicer using the built-in  w3 as against fsf emacs with netscape.


My xemacs loads html-mode alright but balks at `browse-url-of-buffer'
with:
Symbols function definition is void: `browse-url-of-buffer'

Does it work for you?
