zandramas 0 Report post Posted November 16, 2004 All programs will close if there was a crash.. No matter how manyof them you have open will close.. IE is ok however I would recommend using other browsers that are available that is much better then IE or better then Netscape. Talk about slow browser there. hehe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
d-and-d 0 Report post Posted November 16, 2004 Personally I'm a conformist, and use Internet Explorer (v6.0), but thats only really because I'm too lazy to change it for anything new.IE is probably the most common browser (you have to bear in mind that people in this topic are all likely to be webmasters of some kind, and so are more into computers than many people who just look at sites, who are usually less technical)However, I would hardly call it the "best" - it's a microsoft product, so how could it be the best?!

sirgalphan 0 Report post Posted November 16, 2004 There's alot of good browsers out there, and I agree that a web designer should try hard to make it compatable with as many as possible. But if it came down to having to choose between browsers, I'd probably go with IE, since its more widely used and supported... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Darren1405241470 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2004 I have finnally changed my default browser over from the widely supperted and yet utterly hopeless IE to the all round great browser Opera. It took me a long time to do but i just can't put up with the insufficient security of IE. I will still keep IE around to check my website in but apart from that it will be used no more !

haseeb1405241472 0 Report post Posted November 21, 2004 I use opera browser because it has good skins and i love skins.It is fast browser.Now operas new version has come opera 7.6.It is faster than other versions and it has more features .ok Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MajesticTreeFrog 0 Report post Posted November 25, 2004 Firefox is my clear favorite. I wish the OSX version was a bit faster, but then again its not really relevant since its plenty fast. I used to try opera, but something about its interface just didn't work for me. IE.....well, its crap. nuf said. Safari is pretty good, especially for a basic browser, but why use it when you have firefox? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iGuest 3 Report post Posted December 7, 2004 I have used IE, Mozilla, Firefox and Opera. I normally casually surf around using Firefox because I like its features however I am starting to like the sp2 IE. For testing your websites I believe people should base their design to be mainly capable with IE versions because IE is what the greatest amount of Internet users surf with. But to test with all browsers is an excellent idea to try and create the largest amount of compatibility possible with browser, though you may run into difference in layout posistions between certains browsers.

Abystar1405241473 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2004 I use Maxthon from http://www.maxthon.com/ because of it's base on IE, tab browsing, ad block, popup block and many useful plugins ^^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ouachiski 0 Report post Posted December 11, 2004 I use Firefox. I allso have opera an ie witch I dont use very mutch since I started useing firefox. Firefox's tabed browsing I do like sometimes more than opera. Firefox's speed is comparible if not faster than opera if configured properly. Firefox's extensions alow you to customize it to youre liking. It allso has RSS and ATOM feed live links making bookmarks stay up to date with what is hapening on a site(great for youre G-mail acount). Probably my favorite extension that I have found lately for firefox is the Tab browser extensions witch among other things lets you unclose tabs and restore tabs after a crash, witch hasnt hapend since going 1.0.IE. To many security flaws and crashes. Allso the sp2 popup blocker dose not block spyware popups.PS. Those of you with fire fox faving trouble installing java click on the little grey sircle right below the x to close firefox(you know the circle that swirls when a page loads)and click plugins. They have a java plugin there that works. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
