Data in a hurry

[venta]

Dull survey: does your web browser of choice support the data:// scheme, as defined in RFC 2397 ?

Quick check:

If you can see a little picture of a face here, the answer is "yes". If you see some form of red-x/image-not-available thing, that's a "no".



If you could comment, letting me know which browser you're using, that'd be great.

To save an immediate flurry of duplicate comments, IE6 doesn't support it :)

And slightly relevantly:

Is it possible to get google to search for things which include non-alphanumerics ?

Searching for "data://" seems to be equivalent to searching for "data", which is not very helpful. Escaping the dots and slashes with a \ doesn't work.

Best I have come up with is using the word like dotnet or csharp. I also would like to know if there is a method to get the punctiuation. Maybe other engines allow it?

Doesn't look like it, according to the advanced search tips. The closest I've got (in about 1 minute of looking) is to use the inurl: prefix. ie. inurl:data which (amazingly) insists that data is in the URL. But that's 267 million pages, including such things as msdn.microsoft.com/data/

You could try Google hacks. There might even be an appropriate thing in the Sample Hacks?
