I want WinCustomize to look good in Mozilla!
Friday, June 14, 2002 by devhen | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I know, its WINcustomize, but still, I would be so happy if thinkgs looked right in Mozilla. For example, right now I can't see what I'm typi9jng because the textarea is mysteriously narrow. Didn't look like this in IE! ... Mozilla forever!!!!

chris: there is no way to change that. ie does not render on the fly like mozilla does.
as for browser stats, here is a snapshot of june from deviantART:
67.63% MSIE 6.0
13.65% MSIE 5.0
12.98% MSIE 5.5
3.98% Mozilla/5.0
0.49% MSIE 5.1
0.39% Opera/6.0
0.27% MSIE 4.0
0.23% Mozilla/4.7
0.09% Konqueror/3.0
0.08% Opera 6.0
0.05% Konqueror/2.2
0.02% Konqueror/3
0.02% OmniWeb/4.1
0.02% Mozilla/4.6
0.01% Opera/5.1
i cant believe people still use netscape 4.xx versions. with the net evolving as fast as it does it is hard to fathom sticking with a 4+ year old browser!
guess some habits die hard...

Sigh.. I've just given up on Mozilla again. I'd really like to use it, since it renders so quickly, it but its tabbed browser functionality is more like an afterthought than a feature. Its only good if you occasionally use tabs. Its too primitive.
Chris goes back to Netcaptor...

chris: if you want full fledged tabbed browsing functionality then grab the multizilla extension for mozilla. it adds a host of wicked features for the tabbing.
grab it from here: http://multizilla.mozdev.org/
it is far better than netcaptor could ever hope to be.

DevArt is the sole reason I switched to Mozilla. It took fifteen minutes per page to display DevArt in Netscape (on the p75). That was a bit too much, even for me.

Okay. Multizilla is more like it! Only one thing though. I open web pages by shortcuts (usually as NextStart menus). However, this launches multiple copies of Mozilla. Hmmm. what's the point of a mult-tabbed browser if you're still forced to deal with multiple windows?

I'm loving Mozilla now, I'm using the mouse gestures, Banner blinds and the Multizilla addons. Whats even better is that Reget (download manager) now intergrates properly.
Bye bye IE (apart from windows updates and the skin browser)

TasT has been hooked on Moz since the .9.x releases and I don't understand how anyone could still use IE after using it..

there appear to be no rendering problems with 1.0. however, 1.1a has numerous rendering issues.

Question regarding IE vs. Mozilla load times with Wincustomize.com
When I load wincustomize (esp. this board) IE takes forever, in that by looking at the status bar the web page is downloading but doesn't render until its nearly done downloading. With Mozilla it begins rendering right away, making it appear faster.
Is this the case? Is their a way to change IE's behavior in this regard?
