does anybody know of some information about what you
can do with applescript and browsers? for example is
netscape 4 and mozilla controllable with apple script? can
i make them open special urls via applescript? can figure
out if a page is fully loaded?

Of course, any discussion of scripting browsers would be incomplete without mentioning 'do shell script "curl ..."', which is far more effective for many Web tasks -- it just returns the page source as a string. (Requires Mac OS X, naturally.)
