Something you don't understand... in Mozilla (as in other open source
projects) the source code *is* the product.

Binaries are made available for testing purposes only.

Re: More reasons not to download Netscape 6.2.1 - wait until next release!!

2002-03-09 Thread Randall Parker

On Fri, 08 Mar 2002 23:35:25 GMT esteemed Netscape Basher did hold forth 
thusly:



Well Basher Bundy, my suggestion is that you don't use NS 6.21 and stop 
complaining about it. 

I think Moz is maturing very nicely. Since about Moz v0.97 I've found it is 
a better browser than IE 5.5 SP2. I'd try IE 6.0 but people tell me its 
slower and less reliable and so I'll wait till MS does fixes to that major 
release. 

Each Moz point rev keeps getting faster and better. It runs for weeks on 
end with no crash. I really like the tabs. I really like "What's Related" 
as a way to find new and interesting sites. I also like the way one can 
configure which search engine to use and then type in a search pattern and 
hit Search. 

So for me this is a very satisfying browser and I'm thrilled by its 
progress.

If there is a group with the name Microsoft and Neoplanet in it and I

totally False. Netscape has nothing to do with the bandwidth on this 
newsgroup. It is not hosted by Netscape, it is hosted by 100's of 
newsgroup servers around the world. It is a general usenet forum, just

Because Netscape promotes it as a Fully Functional end user product.
Netscape is not Mozilla. The latest Netscape took Mozilla .9.4, added 
some code and bells and published it, as a fully working version of 
Netscape.

Mozilla is very clear they are not an end user product and are a beta 
product. Take a look at what I am posting this under, Mozilla. I am a

mozilla 0.9.8 prefs.js's dirctory nameing???

2002-03-09 Thread Song pan

I had trouble to change the default dirctory to somewhere else in Win2k. 
I was trying to change my bookmark file from default profile directory 
to my own one. E.g.
"C:\Documents and 
Settings\rootpan\iFolder\doc\bookmarks\bookmarks.html", with the line
user_pref("browser.bookmark_location", "C:\\Documents and 
Settings\\rootpan\\iFolder\\doc\\bookmarks\\bookmarks.html");
It doesn't work. And same as address book file, I can change the name of 
the address book but I can't move it any other directory, even the child 
directory of the profile directory. Any idea how to fix it?

no, it wasn't.  he meant the "view source" command in mozilla, which

i know hotmail has various issues when it doesn't get HTTP referrer
from the browser.  it's also heavy on jscript aimed at IE.  maybe there's
something different about the way mozilla handles the script, or with the
referrer?  just guessing here...

Thanks for the quick response. Other browsers also fetch the
new page for this feature. I think I might've not been
clear, sorry. By "View Source" I meant clicking on the link
present in the individual email message view in hotmail.
The link itself is called "View Message Source" or something
of that nature. Typically, browsers will just open a new
page with a source of an email message (full headers and
such), but with mozilla, I get redirected to the login page
:(

I dont think this was the same thing you were referring

In what way does Java2 support any specific browser? They're just making 
plugins for certain browsers, and that's it - so why bother about 
certain browser? I don't get that.

The problem is with Mozilla in this case, because "View Source" in 
Mozilla currently fetches a new copy of the page from Hotmail. This is a

Hello,

This is the only browser (0.9.8, Linux) where a new window

taken to the main page, not to the "view source" page or to

I guess I am wondering if the problem is with hotmail, and

what he meant was that it wasn't a strict doctype.

you can trigger strict mode by using a strict doctype, but strict mode is
also used to render non-strict documents in a strictly non-strict way if
they have a non-strict doctype including a URL.

i'm not sure if it's officially called "strict mode", but it's a dumb
name to use in any case, because it has little to do with HTML strict.
calling it "standards-compliant mode" would avoid confusion between the
HTML Strict standard and mozilla's "strict" (i.e. compliant) mode,
which can apply to documents which are not written in HTML Strict.

Being no Netscape employee, I can't comment on that point.
However, this _is_ a way for Netscape to make money, so I suppose this

I guess the actual 6.2.1 version of netscape has nothing to offer.

Exactly the point. We all agree with you here so there's no
point bashing us on this. But the fact that NS621 sucks is
no reason to hate Mozilla, since most of your complaints
do not apply to Mozilla.

It's like flooding the Microsoft newsgroups because you
don't like Neoplanet's features! (Neoplanet is based on
IE just like Netscape is based on Moz)

FYI Mozilla 0.9.8 is way better than Netscape 6.2.1.
and more stable than 0.9.7.

I suggest you download it and see the difference.

I think "close that window on every start of Netscape" is
bad advice.

My friend definitely wouldn't want to close it everytime.
Netscape implemented a bad idea and I hope you are not
defending a bad idea. I can edit .js files, but my friend

Is it too much to ask for Netscape to be more sensitive?

The purpose of the home button is to have this one particular site
readily available at the click of a button. Most end users use this
as their jump-off point.

Having the Home in the bookmarks clearly defeats this purpose.
So does having Home in a personal toolbar that I have to make
visible just to click on Home.

You may be technical about your definition of Navigation Buttons
but most end users would consider going home as "navigation".

Home is technically a shortcut, but conceptually it is more than
that: it is a home. Otherwise there is no point being able to set
it in the preferences dialog since you can just bookmark it with
Ctrl+D.

0.9.9 is not behind schedule. The Roadmap only talks about an "ideal

product later than a bad product now.
And in any case it needs not affect the 1.0 release.

This specific feature has nothing to do with Mozilla developers. It is a

I would guess that Netscape Marketing or something is to blame.


And by the way: I don't care so much whether the Internet Community

But at least with MS, you know you land on their site if you search term 
if void (doesn't excuse them though, still bad). Netscape goes through 
AOL without landing at the aol site, then forwards you to your search 
results. Deceptive to say the least.

I would say if you are going to search for stuff that could be 
embarassing if discovered linked to your isp, use an anonymous proxy

One temporary solution:
Use the mouse gestures add-on available at

Mouse gestures includes a method for getting to your set home page by

Re: Put the Home Button on the main toolbar

2002-03-09 Thread me

I tend to strongly disagree.  Are you telling me that your home (as in place
where you reside in the physical world), isn't a place that you navigate to
a lot when you want to get home?

And, Home has been with those other Navigation buttons (back, forward, etc.)
for a long time including every major browser release in the past from
Netscape and Microsoft.  I don't need the personal toolbar in Mozilla except
for the "Home" button.  Why waste all that space on a little button when it
would fit on a toolbar that is very necessary?  Home has a home in the main
toolbar.  It has ever since I can remember with other browsers.  If Mozilla
wants to be taken seriously by the mainstream, it has to conform in some
ways to the past.  Most people know what the Home button does.  And they
know where it has been.  To move such a vital button to another spot is just
silly.  People wouldn't take the browser seriously just because the Home
button is moved.

Another 9 megs to download before Real Player plays correctly. For a 
modem user, that is unacceptable. you spend two hours downloading 
Netscape and then you go to play a real audio file and the message, your 
player is out of date..

This is why Netscape is totally dumping on its own users. There is no 
excuse for this.

None.

A Home button, is a shortcut... almost a bookmark. And Back, Forward,

Re: Sun Java Question about mozilla

Maybe I am wayoff base.  If I am, please someone correct me.  But, it does
appear that Java2 JRE is officially supporting Netscape 6.  Since Netscape 6 is
based directly off the Mozilla code, I would think that Mozilla would work with
Java2 JRE whether or not the support is official.

You say this was inspired by Alan Cooper's /The inmates are running the
asylum/, but only one of your four personas (Ling) is a `user' as Cooper
would understand the term.

You appear to be describing people using the Mozilla *code*, rather than
those using a *product* which includes the code. That's an
understandable approach, but it is prone to severe bias. For example,
the number of Lings (Mozilla testers/hackers) will surely be an order of
magnitude greater than the number of Hanses (ISP distributors). Does
that mean that Mozilla should concentrate on pleasing the Lings more
than it concentrates on pleasing the Hanses? I hope not, since Hans will
get Mozilla user agents used by far more people than Ling will.

I described the users I'm designing for back in December
.

I doubt that Hans will be able to afford enough of an investment in
Mozilla that he can either (1) deploy XUL account maintenance apps, or
(2) hack Mozilla's XUL to remove unwanted menu/toolbar items. While
Mozilla may be the ISP's default browser, they can't afford to lock out
the fraction of customers who prefer browsers which don't support XUL,
especially since (given Mozilla's current rate of improvement) that
fraction will be very high for the next couple of years at least.

Finally, do you have Ling's phone number?

(Kidding ...)

I disagree. "Spyware" is any software that spies on what you are doing 
without your consent. For people with static IP adresses, an IP address 
could be enough to reveal personal information.

We don't know what AOL does with the data it collects, but Netscape 6 
certanly does qualify as _potential_ spyware. That doesn't make it any 
worse than MSIE, though -- type an invalid domain name and you are taken 
to MSN search. Who knows what MSFT does with the data they collect?

So both IE and NS could potentially be spying on their users. Lucky for 
me that I use Mozilla.

Mozilla has long had a problem with bad pages getting stuck in the cache 
and not letting a new version in.

Assuming Mozilla worked before and has now stopped working, try clearing
your cache.  Edit/Preferences/Advanced/Cache has buttons for clearing 
disk and memory cache; click both.

If that doesn't work, try deletingthe cache manually -- sometimes it 
doesn't all get cleared.  On my Win98 installation, I delete everething 
in my cache folder, which is at C:/Windows/Application 
data/mozilla/Profiles/default/[generated profile number]/Cache.

"Strict mode" refers to Mozilla's strict standards compliance layout

Actually I did post this on Bugzilla.  It is #109507, been there for 
about 3 months, but no one seems to have addressed it yet.  I think it's 
a very useful idea to have scheduled reloading of tabs (and standalone

type pages, and newswires that either reload way too seldom or too often 
(like every one minute).

Try making sure there aren't any proxies specified.

Alternatively it may be that you require a proxy to be specified. See what 
is specified in Netscape and copy the settings over to Mozilla. In Netscape

The problem is not the Strict mode but the URL. No matter if you use 
Strict or Transitional: The .css file will not be recognized if both the 
server sends the file with the wrong MIME type *and* a URL is specified, 
e.g.

http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/PR-html40-19990824/loose.dtd";>

won't work if the server sends .css files with wrong MIME type, but the

Unfortunately, the 0.9.7 release notes state something which can easily 
be misinterpreted; I myself had to ask someone to find this out. 
Finally, I simply changed our server's settings. :-)

Yes! Yes! Yes! Full ACK!

Skins shouldn't be a playground for hobby artists. If any possible, 
skins should reflect rock solid knowledge of UI design!
If misused as a more-or-less Eye-catcher-stuff with misusing the basics 
of UI design, bad skins are more a pain for daily use than a help.
And either the "wooden skin" as "little mozilla" I call more a pain for 
the eyes than a good product of UI design. With that kind of stuff the 
new Mozilla/Netscape browser *will* remain in a non-professional corner.
Why do Apple, SUN and all the other big companies have an eye on 
usability research centers and studies? To make unprofessional skins? I 
doupt that. As a non-such-professional author you *are* able to make a 
good skin. But you shouldn't do it without any basics in UI design. 
Before making any step in creating a new skin read, learn, teach 
yourself in  the basics of UI design, improve your skills. The web is 
full of public stuff and specifications, that can help (to begin with 
the published stuff by Apple, SUN, Microsoft, GNOME, KDE,...).
And only maybe then -- publish a skin to the world that is so much used 
and so important as the one of a Browser Interface!

> And no... I hope that no happen, I am full with all the trash generated

Also full ACK. See above.

He's right on this one. I tried to install Netscape 6.2.1 on my
friend's new computer. Netscape will not open the first time
until you sign up with a Netcenter account. But my friend
could not sign up because she has no internet connection
yet. Result: the activation page won't go away.

So I uninstalled Netscape and installed Mozilla and all was fine.

Eh. Mozilla was originally Netscape product, so this newsgroup is in the 
netscape.* hierarchy. It is planned to rename these groups to mozilla.* 
to avoid this confusion.

Still, *this* newsgroup is for discussing Mozilla, not Netscape.

Well... it is a bit annoying, but "big issue"? no.

Not in my opinion.

Pardon?? You call it "shitting on users" providing five themes for a 
browser?

> Giving you a worthless version of Real Player? That is a big issue

Which version does Netscape come with?

But anyway, if you want a newer one, don't install the one distributed 
with Netscape, but get it from real.com.  This is not at all a big issue.

You don't have to register it.

I have never had such a problem with Mozilla, can't speak about Netscape.

My personal guess is that 1.0 will be released in April, as the roadmap 
states.

Most "new found bugs" are really either already known or requests for 
enhancements.

Every day a full version of Mozilla is made available.

Does it? I don't know. But Mozilla definitely does not do this.

That's true. But what I wish is for it to be an option, so that other
users can just use View | Show/Hide | Toolbar Text without having
to mess with XUL and CSS.

I hope it can be done in the future. :)
