Nope, Mozilla has it's own toolkit called XPToolkit:

There is a nice intro with small XML/example tidbit at:
	http://www.mozilla.org/xpfe/gettingstarted.html


Mozilla will render elements in either native widgets (GTK on unix
platforms) or it's own internal widgets.  For normal HTML form elements
they can be rendered in either widget set, but there are various XUL-only
widgets that are native only.
