Yes, but it reposts. It shouldn't do that, and whoever thought it should is a twit. I know its being worked on and look forward to when it is fixed, but for now I can't use Moz for web page debugging. > For emails Full headers view bug there is a very simple workaround .. > CTRL U. So again not a big deal. It was broken in a recent nightly build but it is fixed now. When it was broken, ctrl-u didn't work either. Anyway, those were only a couple of isolated examples. Try this one then: reply to an email and drag select some text in the quoted part of the message and delete it. Some other text on the window disappears and you have to scroll the window up and down, or drag over the invisible text to get it to appear again. > I disagree with you.

Sorry, I don't rate the capability or stability of a piece of software by how many times it crashes. Yes, NS4.75 used to crash regularly, but it didn't do any harm, and I restarted it and carried on. I don't care if it crashes twice a day as long as it all works the same (or better) as NS 4.x without any missing functionality. That is IMHO not yet the case with Moz 0.9.4, thought it's nearly there now, and certainly not the case in 6.1. I still find sites and applications that work in 4.75 and IE and not in Moz/NS6.x. Saying it is because the web sites are not written properly doesn't cut it. Yes, that may be the case, but tell that to someone you're trying to convert to NS/Moz and you'll be told "I don't care about that. Give me IE back - it works". > So a 1.0 number a mystical number? Eh? Dunno, but I still maintain a bog-standard user used to IE won't use NS6.1 because of the bugs still extant therein. Warmest Regards, Brian
