I decided to give the FireFox browser a go!!! A bit quirky, but for the most part works well! What i like about this application is the plugins and extensions available!Here's one that WILL make you posting more enjoyable! Basically, it adds the ability to INSERT HTML code just by hightlighting text. It what I'm using to post and change the text in this message...pretty much on the fly
Grab it at the link! Message edited on: 10/30/2005 19:56

How come we say 'It's colder than hell outside' when
isn't it realistically always colder than hell since hell is
supposed to be fire and brimstone?

Hey Joe...just ask me anything about what you can do with Firefox....it is way way better for browsing...highlighting text to find source...spell check in forms...colour picker for on screen hex numbers. Makes viewing a source much easier. Tab Browsing..better right click functions...the list goes on... Only downer is it will not install a plug in needed to listen to embed wav or other music files using the typical embed code.

I am bewildered by the things you say i can do with firefox lol. I have been using it since it was "fox fire". Although i have never used it to do the things you described, i am convinced it is a superior browser to explorer. The tab browsing is great, The choice of what plugins you want or don't want is just that, A REAL CHOICE. You don't get it all by default and have to rummage around to find out how to get rid of it if you don't want it. I agree that there are still some applications you can't use with it but that is changing everyday. I am convinced it will be THE BROWSER of the future. Now to go see what i can do with it i didn't know about, lol. Lee

That's pretty cool, but I think I type faster than when I have to look it up in a menu :)

Ok, I have updated my Firefox to latest edition. But where to find the plugin? Any assistance will be appreciated! Tom.

Now, got it but just trying to figure out how to find and use this thing! This might work out..just so a pandora's box of "personal sigs" is not opened..then again that might be(hope it is!) against TOS. I have to post then right click to open the code menu. TomDart. Got it.
