Yahoo Music works great in 1.5 for me.

I have reevaluated my previous statement on how great Opera is, I am using FF 1.5 now and it's just simply the best out there now!!!! This thing is blazing fast!!!!!

Hmm I still find Opera faster and I have both installed.I still use Opera as my main browser due to speed over Firefox 1.5.

Even crazier. Optimized builds

Back and Forward button is alot slower than in the official release.

Sessionsaver is compatible... not 100% sure for gestures although all it usually takes is a modification of the maxversion in the extension file to get it to work. That is, unless the extension requires features in the specific firefox version

It feels instantaneous to me on my pentium m laptop

It's an extension which allows the user to right click in the bookmarks menu tree to do what its name says. I find it less clunky than the regular method for bookmarking.

add bookmark here

compatible for 1.5

I like Opera side bar,can click anyway on left side edge of screen to open book mark ,can't do that in Firefox.

I still prefer Opera for speed and layout.

If you prefer Opera for layout I can understand (to each his own). Opera is by no means at all faster then FF 1.5 with the "FasterFox" extension installed....FF with this extension blows away any other browser out there (running on windows platform).

*sigh*, YALBT - Yet Another Lame Browser Thread

Are the "Opera rules, Firefox sucks" threads going to replace the "Firefox rules, IE sucks" threads now? Do we need a new thread on this topic every day/week? :roll:

I appologize to you, since I guess I missed where you said you were the official AT Forum police. I suppose I should search next time since I have offended you greatly in my repetative posting on the topic of browsers.

 

[Maximilian]

Its the same as 1.07. If im missing some drastic change here please point it out, as far as i can tell theres no changes. Obviously there is, but i havent noticed anything.

There are perfectly good standards for xml and html (and both). Java has nothing to do with web pages. The lack of proper standards implementations is far bigger than any lack of standards.

If the standards were better the implimentations wouldn't be so different.

There you go with your piddly little attitude again. We don't want to hear it. We won't feel sorry for you. Stop it.
