Try something like this
"<IMG CLASS=icon SRC=\ref[src.AA]>
"

If you're outputting to the BYOND text window, "\icon[M]" will output M's icon to the window. I believe it works in the browser, too.

Maybe I did something wrong, but I could never get the icon macros to work in the browser, but this works. I used this for a similar situation, I wanted to show the icon of an item in a browser window.

proc
  Info(mob/M)
    if(istype(src,/obj/item))
        //Get the icon you want, and send it to the client as icon.dmi
        M << browse_rsc(icon(icon,icon_state),"icon.dmi")
        var/html = // Whatever your html is
                   // Use this to show the icon: 
                   // <IMG CLASS=icon SRC=icon.dmi> 
        M<<browse(html,"window=info;size=300x400")

In response to Drumersl
 
mob/verb/Show_Me()
    usr<<browse_rsc(usr.icon,"icon2show")//loads the icon to be used in the browser (icon,reference name)
    usr<<browse("<img src=icon2show>")//displays the icon in the browser by using the reference name


however! to do something like this as a who list you have to browse_rsc each icon type (ie: Humans, Dark Elf, Monkeys) to a different variable, otherwise all players will end up looking like the last player to show up on the who list
Also i wouldnt recomend doing a browser who list that shows player icons because it takes a while to load <.<

and no, icon text macros dont work in browsers

As Drumersdl, ATHK, and Falacy states, you do have to use browse_rsc() to show icons in the browser. You should use the second argument, but if you don't, I beleive they send icons to the cache defaultly by the name of they're \ref.
