(2) Your attempt to use this script generically is probably doomed to
failure anyway, because each browser likely has a different way of being
told to get the source of the current page. You're going to have to write
different scripts for different browsers.

Not at all. He can do something like this where <<>> is guillemets:

set browser_ to "Safari"
set s1 to "<<class conT>> of front document as string"
set s2 to "<<event MSIESORC>> item 1 of (Gevent WWW!LSTWH)"
-- etc. etc.
set s3 to "\"some other browser's events\""

tell application "Finder" to if browser_ is not in name of processes then
return (run script s3)
end if

try
tell application browser_ to run script s1
on error
try
tell application browser_ to run script s2
on error
try
tell application browser_ to run script s3
end try
end try
end try
