Internet Explorer For Macintosh for ebay
Hello, While many will not miss Internet Explorer, I don't know of a replacement that will do as good a job for ebay auctions. Now, when I download the web page for an item, IE downloads a copy of the page, with an item description and with the url. Later, to check the auction progress, I double click on this saved page on the Desktop, click the Connect button and it connects and refreshes when I click on the bids link. However, when I tried Safari, an ebay auction page was not saved with the images, the page did not have a correct title, and later double clicking on the page just opened the page on my desktop but there was no web url at the top- just a link on my Desktop so I could not connect again to this page. What browser are people using to follow ebay auctions- a browser that downloads the page content and pictures? So far, I have found IE the best for auctions, on both OS9 and OSX. Would appreciate alternative suggestions. Thanks. -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

I've saved other website pages with images using iCab. Never tried it with ebay however. Later.Howard Computer n.

Firefox allows you to save a pages as Web Page, Complete, which does that. For that matter, so does Safari...save as 'Web Archive', it saves the text, images and other components of the page. If you save it as page source, it doesn't do that. -- Bruce Johnson This is the sig who says 'Ni!' -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

I find that drawing eBay pages is slow slow slow, especially under OS 9 -- unless you disable JavaScript, that is. However, I need JavaScript to be active for the webmail on my ISP (SBC), turning it on off in the prefs is inconvenient. Netscape/WaMCom is faster, but invariably after a while in a session they to crash hard bad under 9, needing a 3-finger salute to reboot. (Under Jaguar Mozilla-based browsers still crash, but you can still use other apps afterword, it being X .) IE crashes sometimes, but not so hard. Ah, the joys of trying to stay afloat in the modern web on 9 I've tried Opera, but don't like it. I'd use iCab, if they ever get a final version out, 1 that deals with CSS well, that I don't have to keep downloading over over. ~~ Bill Art page: http://geocities.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Internet Explorer For Macintosh for ebay
I've saved other website pages with images using iCab. Never tried it with ebay however. I've never tried the auction feature of IE5, but saving web pages with iCab, including auctions pages with pictures, works great for me, too. The files are usually small, and I can move them from OS9 computers to X computers(with iCab 3.x on them) and vice versa with no problem. Just make sure to save as... a web archive page to save the whole page as is. If the auction page will not update when you go to refresh it, at least you have the url in the url block to paste into a new browser window.
