I am pretty much a beginner... So could you please elaborate on that experiment you mentioned.
As I recall, there are two ways to get mozilla to generate one or more key pairs and a corresponding number of requests for a signed cert. They are: 1. The <KEYGEN> tag in an html page, and 2. The generateCRMFRequest() javascript method in an html page.
The KEYGEN tag will generate a PKCS10 CSR, IIRC. The generateCRMFRequest() javascript method will generate CRMF.
I do not know what versions of mozilla support KEYGEN, and
I do not know what versions of mozilla support the javascript generateCRMFRequest() method.
Either way, you test it by setting up a web page and visiting that web page with the browser. You probably don't even need a server, and can use a file:// URL to test the page.
The KEYGEN tag is documented at http://wp.netscape.com/eng/security/comm4-keygen.html
This link will help you find documentation on it. http://www.google.com/search?q=generateCRMFRequest&sourceid=mozilla-search&start=0&start=0

This is ALL I know about this subject.
