David, Axiom has its own internal "browser-like" front end called hyperdoc. I am in the process of moving the information from hyperdoc to traditional web pages.
The browser pages are all built automatically and live in $AXIOM/doc/hypertex and the root page is: $AXIOM/doc/hypertex/rootpage.xhtml Communication with a running Axiom is started by typing )browse at the Axiom command line. Axiom will now listen on localhost:8085 and serve pages to the same port. This is still under development. It will eventually allow Sage notebook-style interactions (See "Any Command"). Unfortunately there is still much work to be done but the basics exist.
