90412 2002-10-18 19:11:00 I saw a really cool one the other day. It was a local htm document with a grid of boxes full of links under certain topics. He reckoned it was faster than using favourites.

It was just all there. Must have been about fifty links on one page (I don't think I would need anywhere near that many).

So simple and yet so effective. Fast to load, because it's local.

Hmm.... I did that once (yrs ago), but it became a hassle whenever you wanted to add something to the page in that you had to open the source & add the additional html. Not much I suppose, but click and drag is far faster.

I suppose now that I can code in js and vbs a drop spot on the page wouldn't be that hard to create. Hmmmm......

90415 2002-10-19 04:44:00 I'm sure there's something that you can do to make any click change the bottom page, so if you were to click on search in google, it'd goto the bottom frame. Is it possible? Chilling_Silence (9)

Well.... showing my age here: My First Browser (tm) * didn't use a drop down menu to access the favorites. You would press a button and viola.. a page would display with all the links. When you added one it would update the html file with a new link.

:-) Technically speaking my first browser was actually Lynx through a telnet session to a shell account on a Citynet Micro-Vax 3900 .... but does that really count....? 'o)
