Green, Red and Blue without any config, the link refers to FF version 3 so well out of date.
yeah but google Chrome is still not supporting icc profiles.
Probably Neil, many folks here that use LR to export are still using AdobeRGB or ProfotoRGB because LR tells them that some colour info will be lost if they don't use these profiles......which is not the case for webviewing.

No idea about Chrome, my point was my version of FF supports the profile with no need to configure anything, contrary to the instructions on that link.

You have to cater for the lowest common denominator on the internet. And for photos that's sRGB whether you like it or not <shrug>. Anyone outputting in anything else is likely to have their images displayed incorrectly on other peoples monitors.
Depending on which set of stats you believe, you could be displaying your image wrong to a significant population of the internet: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usage_share_of_web_browsers
Note: IE users will be a mix of older IE versions and newer so you could be wrong on the majority of users browsers (and that's not accounting for badly calibrated displays!)...: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Explorer#Market_share_history_overview_by_year_and_version

Why link to out of date FF info then?
"... What about Firefox then, you might be asking? Well, the latest version of Firefox (3.x) actually does support ICC profiles, although not by default - you actually need to switch that option on first. How? You just open a new window and type “about:config” in the address bar. After hitting enter, the app will give you a warning, that changing advanced settings is only a good idea if you know what you are doing. Once you’ve confirmed, you’ll get a list of entries. Filter out the ones with the word “color” in them. At the bottom, you’ll find one called “gfx.color_management.enabled”. Simply double-click that line, and the setting in the “Value” column will change from “false” to “true”. Now quit and re-open the app. That’s it! Your Firefox now supports ICC profiles...."

Aye, I was a staunch IE8 supporter until this site snagged on it.
sRGB is a no-brainer.
