Well, I gave the W3C reference browser (Amaya) a try, and even *that*
doesn't behave as expected. It's closer than either Opera or MSIE, though.
MSIE gives simple ruby (without the <r?c> tags) a workable try, which is
better than nothing, but I hate browser-specific pages even more than
font-specific ones.
I think I'm going to give up HTML and look at Word macros, and maybe LaTeX.
