Enjoy it. Spell checking AS I TYPE THIS for the win.

Odd that that's not a link to the firefox website. But oh well, thanks for the heads up!

adam

It's a link to the Mozilla site, though.

I've been using the beta for the past 3 or so months.

It's nice.

mmm inline spell checking = win

Thegodzero

HoT!!

Slum

Spell check rocks, all the new fancy graphic stuff sucks.

hawken

inline spell checking is part of mac os x, for any program (including web browsers), enjoy!

adam

YES BUT CAN IT PLAYER COUNTER-STRIKE?

OS-X FOR THE LOSE!

KDR_11k

Opera had spell checking for quite some time but you need to install a third party dictionary and I didn't manage to make that work...

hawken

It would be cool if firefox had built in counter strike

Should I download a free browser or spend $3000 on hardware I don't need... quite a dilemma there.

thomasp

what about donating those 3000 to the mozilla project, then? btw. konqueror has had inline spellchecking for ages, too.

sonic

mozilla makes millions from their included google search bar

PC version works great but it doesn't run too good on my Intel Macbook, if just seems to hang up on the color wheel for no reason. I use Camino on my Macbook.

morrowindsky81993

cool. i use firefox on a constant basis. it is simply the only browser i use! MOZILLA RULES!

I'm not sure what you're talking about Per, window list sidebar? Firefox has "tabs" that let you keep new pages all in one window. It lists them across the top. Ctrl-T to open a new tab. Is that what you're after or are you looking for something that displays all those windows at the same time?

hawken

I think he means a visual list of windows

fogmann

Well, it loads super fast, but it doesn't remember my tabs from previous session The Session Saver extension doesn't work with v2.0, but this version of Firefox is supposed to remember previous session if you tell it to (Tools > Options > Main: When Firefox starts > Show my windows and tabs from last time). But it doesn't work for me. It always opens blank. Did I miss something?

Mark Dygert

Ahh I see, that is handy! I'll be waiting for the plug-in to update

You mean like this?

sorry to resurrect an old crappy thread, but has anyone else experienced an insane amount of lockups with 2.0? On both my laptop and desktop it freezes many times a day and it won't allow me to end the process or restart the computer, forcing me to do a hard reset. i just installed the 1.5.7 build again and it works great.

Neo_God

nope, no crashing problems. The only problem I have with it is that at times I can't copy or paste things, so I have to minimize n' maximize the screen the screen, then it works again.

adam

Per, there is a tab list in Firefox 2.0. Open more than 1 tab and click the down-arrow to the right of all the tabs.

Right click to refresh the whole list.

sonic: I personally have yet to have a problem, however, one of the UNIX admins here at work could not get it to work in Linux (Slax, I believe). I always wanted to pull the 1.5 version even when the binaries were removed. Another guy said that if he had more than a couple tabs open, it would blur out text on the tabs. Mileage may vary, I guess.

Michael Knubben

Adam: he included a picture and an explanation of exactly what he meant. It was an exciting novel, reading somewhat like: "A list of tabs is not what i need"
Also because you can't even mmb-click on the entries of that list, or rightclick, or err... you know, ANYTHING he mentioned.
