I used to have Firebird (which became Firefox) as my default browser then went back to Opera as I like Opera's customisability. Like you I prefer the tabs at the bottom of the window (Firefox can do this as well but it is a little more fiddly than just one click) and I have customised Opera quite significantly. I find it tedious to have to download extensions for all the features that I want in Firefox and have them break with upgrades. Firefox is a definitely little faster than Opera and I still use it occasionally, sometimes having both browsers running at the same time, but Opera is my default. |

You could argue that when logging into the site In IE - After putting in your Customer Reg Number and Password you can press enter and it logs you in In Firefox - As above however you have to press log on, nothing major really..... I have spoken to ANZ, about the browser opening in a new window and not in a tab, althrough suspect nothing will be done about it - unless the Web Designer it a FF fan ;) |
