PNG questions

This is only partially to do with VRML, but I hope someone can help me
anyway. With all the mess about GIFs, I'm trying to get setup to use PNGs
instsad.

My first questions is; which VRML browsers support PNGs? (My primary
concern being WebSpace, which seems not to.)

Secondly, I'm trying to set up a NCSA 1.5a server (running on a SUN) to
serve PNG images. I've changed my config files...
mime.types: image/x-png png
srm.conf: AddType image/x-png png
... and I've restarted the server. All I'm getting is ascii junk.
(and yes, I have configured and tested Netscape for PNGs so I know I CAN
view them.)

These are the exact same steps I used when I configured the stupid thing
for VRML. Does anyone have any ideas about what I might be doing wrong?

Thanks!
