Firefox 2.0 is out - Page 4

One thing I like about IE7 is the "preview" pane of all your tabs - that is a nice little feature. It has a lot of cool little things that are quite nice that Firefox has - it's just nice to have something a bit more reliable

Down to personal experience I guess. I've not seen Firefox crash since the 1.5 RC's. Well, once, but that was down to me using a silly version of the GPL flash module on one of my Linux boxen. Swapping for the macromedia binaries fixed it no worries.

Ooh, I like this! With the 'Orbit' theme it's even better.

Nice one Daz

I'm liking FF2

Another thing I found yesterday is an extension called FireFTP. It's great as it opens up an FTP proggy in another tab/window. Works really well on both the PC and Mac

That's not because I mentioned it in the Newcastle meet thread yesterday is it?

I've just found an unwelcome feature of FF2. When I press Alt+S it opens the History menu instead of Post Reply

That's not clever. I use Alt+S too.

Nope. I found it all on my own

That'll pretty quickly annoy the hell of me, probably enough to switch browsers if there isn't a way to turn it off.

I never even knew that existed before now :S
