Sorry, I replied too quickly; I was suggesting how to determine 
whether Prototype was loaded, not whether the browser at hand can 
handle all of Prototype's operations.  Since all I can offer is that 
you walk through the Prototype code looking for methods to test for, 
I'll defer to my more learned colleagues on this one.
