Browser support for digital certificates

Digital certificates are managed by all common browsers: Firefox, Safari, Opera, Netscape Navigator, Microsoft Internet Explorer ...

If visiting a site with the secure Hypertext Transport Protocol, as with https://secure.csse.uwa.edu.au/ we can view digital certificate information via the 'padlocked' icon.

Unfortunately, there are often few CAs from Australia in most common browsers.
