You make it sound like..."Try to make it work" huh? You make it sound like it's doomed to fail, and you will return to IE sooner or later. :) <BR/><BR/>I'm not quite sure what you mean about it opening links in new windows at seemingly random times. Do you mean sometimes it opens links in new windows and sometimes in new tabs and sometimes in the same tab? If that's what you mean, download the tabbrowser preferences extension <A HREF="https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?id=158&application=firefox" REL="nofollow">here</A>. It lets you choose how you want links to open when you click on them.<BR/><BR/>If that's not when you mean, then, well, I have no idea what you are talking about? :)Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01554496180206096813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16867968.post-1133922198323088562005-12-06T21:23:00.000-05:002005-12-06T21:23:00.000-05:00well, it was sweet of you to try. you really didn...well, it was sweet of you to try. you really didn't have to. but because you tried so hard, i will stick with firefox for a bit longer and try to make it work.<BR/><BR/>though it *does* open links in new windows at seemingly random times, and i'm not talking about target=_blank windows, either. ever have that one happen?Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16407004502766521788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16867968.post-1133910147419370862005-12-06T18:02:00.000-05:002005-12-06T18:02:00.000-05:00Well, Nye!, I have tried.

But I have failed. I cannot find a replacement for your beloved ctrl+k. In fact, I can't even seem to find references to your original ctrl+k for IE. They need to document these things in an easy-to-find location!<BR/><BR/>I am sorry. :(Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01554496180206096813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16867968.post-1133819694232490172005-12-05T16:54:00.000-05:002005-12-05T16:54:00.000-05:00well, IE does most of those things too, with the e...well, IE does most of those things too, with the exception of tabbed browsing and the extensions. and the option of grouping the windows together into one spot on the taskbar is actually a windows XP feature, not an IE feature. you can turn it off, as i have. some of the older browsers (the original Opera comes to mind) used the tab thing and i never liked it.<BR/><BR/>i'll give the themes a whirl, i guess, but what about my beloved ctrl+k? isn't there any way to bring that back?Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16407004502766521788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16867968.post-1133819595918304242005-12-05T16:53:00.000-05:002005-12-05T16:53:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16407004502766521788noreply@blogger.com
