My top browser will have these features : 0. works under gnome :") 1. Session save/restore, autosave on crash 2. AdBlock-er - powered by regexes, with ability to not only block but stop the dload of blocked objects block Flash-es too.. 3. One-click on/off features for - proxy, java, pop-up, javascript 4. As small as possible footprint (only browsing) 5. Supporting fast switching between TABS even if there is 30-40 open (oops forgot to metions, browser w/o Tabs is not a browser, internet-exploder not in my list:")) 6. Support for pages (tabs of tabs, metatabs) !!! - these would be VERTICAL-TABS on the left/right, so that instead of opening 3 browsers I open 3 vertical-TABS :") Less important ----------------------- 7. Edit bookmarks in place instead of opening a new-app/window where I have to search X minuties what I need to edit/hierarcy-move 8. Easy zoom as per Galeon 9. Detailed info about the page fetching process with progress bars and kB/s (opera seems good in this) 10. Font config as per Galeon not as Opera 11. Save Page/Whole page (as per IE) 12. kiosk ability, so that we can make web-app 13. Detect process hogs such as flash-movies and if they begin to consume high-cpu lower their priority even if the flash looks bad. If I have 30-40 tabs i dont want to slow my comp 'cause someone decided to make heavy flash.. 14. Look at what plugins ppl are doing and include them or ease their inclusions..:") 15. As per old Galeon -> Handler so that we can redirect dloads/mail etc.. to other programs. If it have it's own dload manager it has to support 2 very important things : - continuing stopped dloads - setting dload speed otherwise it is useless... what u think ? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list ============================================================ I think you should seriously consider Opera and its features. It's damn fast and feature-rich. I use it religiously. Pretty small footprint--size 6, I think. Easy bookmark editing. Tabs are a snap--though I am not sure about this concept of 'metatabs.' The Hotlist is beautiful. In addition, nearly everything is configurable in Opera. You can place anything you wanna see anywhere you want to--provided that is top, bottom, left, or right. But it's great. Neuros. --***-- 'Esse quam videri.' To be, rather than to appear. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
