IE Tab for 2.0?

[Tom Pamin]

Is there a way to get the old IE Tab plugin (npietab.dll) to work in 
2.0)? If not, what do we use?

AFAIK there is no fully SM 2 compatible version of IE Tab yet. All 
version I tested (1.3.3, 1.5, 1.5 dev; all installed with the extensions 
compatibility check disabled) basically worked in that they used IE's 
rendering engine to e.g. display http://www.windowsupdate.com/  (which 
is on the extension's default white list) and seemed to respect the 
white list settings. All those versions also had in common that they 
didn't show IE Tab anywhere outside the Add-on Manager (and xSidebar's 
configuration drop-down), i.e. neither in the Tools menu nor the status 
bar. I guess the menu/status bar overlays need some adjustments for SM 2.


Maybe you could try and ask the extension's author to make it compatible 
with SM 2? Alternatively you may add your request to this thread:

Thanks - how did you get it to work if it didn't show up anywhere?

As I said the configuration dialog can be accessed (see above). I cannot 
recommend to use any of those versions productively, though. They seem 
to break the location bar (the address doesn't change when different 
rendering engines are used). Anyway, my testing ends here, please see my 
last posting for how to proceed to achieve actual compatibility.

IETab developmental work has stopped. You should look at the actively
developed fork "Coral IETab" instead.

I think you're mixing up topics here. ;-) Check the subject.

To answer your question: It's under Browser/History/Form and Search History.
