Firefox 2

[Sam Slater]

Has anybody installed this yet?

I have, and must say I'm impressed.

One of the features lets you restore everything as it was, in case of a crash.

I was downloading the James Bond trailer whilst typing a reply on this forum. It made Firefox crash for some reason, and upon restarting it gave me the option to restore my previous session. Upon the restore I found myself back with all my text still within the reply box!

Yes and I'm impressed too though some sites are still not Firefox friendly.......

[Jacques]

I also like the fact the even at RC3 stage addons, plugins and Greasemonkey have all been updated as they were found to be incompatible.

[Sam Slater]

I'm surprised their are lots of updated extensions & addons already. The British dictionary is good. At least my spelling is checked as I'm typing my replies.

On a side note: Have you every tried Opera Jacques? I've never tried it but always got a positive response from people that do use it.

[Jacques]

Opera yes. I don't really browse with it as a hell of alot of website aren't too compatible. I mostly use it to check my xhtml and css is cross-site friendly, but it is a very good browser.


Oh and my comment was a dig at someone for having a shit attitude towards making sites cross-browser friendly.

I haven't really noticed any difference from Firefox 1.5 except I've lost a few extensions that I always used to use. But, I like the spell checker whenever you enter text.
