I noticed `w3m-goto-article-function' hasn't been made up as a
user option, so I've made it customizable in the emacs-w3m CVS
trunk yesterday.  Feel free to set it to a Lisp function you
like, but I noticed there is a limitation a bit (because it was
introduced for a particular purpose first).  That is the function
set should return a non-nil value.  Though `browse-url' seems to
return a non-nil value normally, it is better to ensure it.  For
this reason, I recommend using the function form

(lambda (url) (browse-url url) t)

rather than just using `browse-url'.

I leave all those as the default and have no problem (Firefox
happens to be used by default).  I don't always necessarily use
emacs-w3m.   I use Firefox when purchasing something, manipulating
my bank account... ;-)
