Taupe

If you had really read the thread, you'd noticed something we call "quotes". That's really helpfull to follow a dicussion...Maybe you didn't know this tip, and that's why you didn't understood the thread... If you still consider that you're right, show me one post where I don't answser to no9t9... Of course : you replied also to BoSZ.But I only quoted the parts of your posts which were answering to me. Wrong : I've allways stayed in the topic : web browsers.→ about standards : they're in the definition of a browser. So you can't talk about a browser without talking about standards → about markets : I've never talked about that. You seem to still have difficulties to admit that... You're conversation with BoSZ was off topic, but I didn't participated to it. Once again, read carefully the thread : maybe this time you'll realise that you misunderstood my posts...

That cleary shows that you didn't read the thread, or that you've got comprehension problems (you can choose what you prefere...)All my posts were answers to no9t9's ones, which were answers to mines, and all in respect with the topic... That's how a thread works. But maybe you didn't know that. Now, you can keep on laughing or you can choose to open your eyes...

But maybe you didn't understood all then...

WMP could contain illegal files...

He was answering to my post. You should really read totally the thread before writing such posts (especially no9t9's ones)... Apache is used by 70% of webservers. But IIS has much more security holes than Apache.So security has nothing to do with age or number of users...

While it isn't installed by your admin, you can download the zip file, and unzip it in your personnal folder (or a temp one), and use directly Firefox.You don't need to install it... (That's what we do in our school.) https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/contribute/friends/

Just wait one day that the rush stops and download it again (and use a FTP client for example).It's quite stupide to stay with a dangerous and deprecated software just because you couldn't download a modern one...

You've got many of them on this page, but let them some time to build the new version

In case you didn't noticed, I've only discussed about browsers.Maybe you should read my posts... If you want to write off topic, open a new thread. But this one is about browsers, I've answered you about browsers, and we've seen that you've got many gaps in this domain (particulary about standards...). So if you really think I've talked about something else than browsers, that could explain why you posted so many nonsenses

You can configure Mozilla and Mozilla Firefox so that they warn you before closing all tabs of a window.

Why ? We're talking about browsers, in the software board. That's the most suitable place...If you still don't understand something, ask it here and we'll explain you... Well, some people don't want to format every couple of days, that's why they use a secure browser, like Firefox 1.0 which just have been released. All experts recommand it...

Not accepted but decided.Do you understand the difference ? Because it's in the definition of standards.How could someone who doesn't understand anything in a field define a standard ? You can stop here : that was not a standard. So all your example is useless No ! They write them. In safety, something respect the standard or not. There is no alternative.If youre plan isn't standard-compliant, the city will reject it for its public building. It's just simple as it. You seems to still don't understand what a standard is. It's never late to understand this....

Yes, you have, because the version you're using isn't Firefox 1.0 but Firefox 1.0RC2

Wrong.It has to be widely accepted by professionals which can understand what this standard is, and what advantages it has. And here, internet standards is accepted by 100% of internet actors. If you like example, I'll give you one. Imagine one standard for fire security which is to have 3 emergency exits by floor. If 90% of buildings in the world only has 2 emergency exits, will you still stupidly claim "No?, the standard is 2 exits, not 3 as profesionnals decided" ? The death of a product has nothing to do with its market.You should stop thinking in economic terms when we're talking about technology... All web profesionnals told it : IE is dead. You can't change it (only M$ can)

no9t9 : BoSZ allready explained it : standard has nothing to do whith how many people implement them. You're just using the wrong word... And IE is really dead, because its developers stoped implementing technologies released more than 6 years ago. Do you realise what 6 years is ? The web is less than 15 years old ! 6 years ago, web was in the Middle Ages... https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/contribute/friends/

By default, Firefox allows popups created by click.And of course, you can add a site to a white list were all popups are allowed... There's lots of popups which aren't blocked by IE...

Because as IE is deprecated, it blocks web evolution.It doesn't understand standards written 6 years ago (or even before), so webmaster can't use those powerfull tools if they want to keep IE visitors Allready done for a long time... I don't know what browser are you talking about, but IE doesn't work with modern website (because of modern standards). You've got to understand than IE is dead... https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/contribute/friends/

No : it depends on your use. If you're a power user, Mozilla will be better for you.

Slimbrowser is only a shell to IE. So it has the same bugs, the same security holes, and the same problems with internet standards. So it's as deprecated as IE...

As pbrugge I use Mplayer for video, and XMMS for audio. I can't understand how people can use closed-source software for there multimedia files, with all the risk of spyware sending information about what files you're playing... http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/404.png Because we're not talking about WMP (which is closed-source and deprecated), but about a modern and free software, MPC.You cal also use VLC if you don't like MPC. But there isn't any other choice on win32...

Gecko browsers usage keeps increasing quickly.

They are perfectly valid images, with no script in them. The only thing to notice is that they're generated dynamically (but all it's done on server-side : you can save the image, it'll show exactly the same thing...) The easiest way to do this is to use PHP and the GD library.

That's wrong : there are extensions for Mozilla not supported by Firefox, and extensions for Firefox not supported by Mozilla...

That's wrong.Even with SP2 IE has lots of security holes that allows crackers to take control of your PC, or spywares to install on it... Contrary to all marketing made by M$, SP2 has hudge security holes. Its really time to dump IE.

Firefox 1.0RC1 has been released
