Firefox 2.0
 

Despite all my prior poo-pooing, I've come to like using Firefox, I'm particularly thrilled that the new version spell checks my posts - or anything else I type into a web form. I wish I could use it a t work.

Ah, thanks for the heads up. I too am a former detractor turned Firefox user. Unfortunately, it looks like the spell check doesn't work in the quick reply box.

Gah! And "Alt-s" now brings up the History menu, so I can't use it as a "submit reply" shortcut anymore. :(

Me likes Firefox 2.0, too.
:)

Your post prompted me to download it - there's some cool new features.
I also had a look at add-ons and went with the download statusbar and Adblock Plus. We'll see how they pan out.

Really? It works for me.... :confused:

I love Firefox. I need to get the new version.

Oh, oops. User error, yeah it's working.

Alt-S, however... :mad:

I have the new version and while I like it, particularly the new spell check feature (which is working in my quick reply box), I've also had it crash a couple of times in the last few days. Not sure what is up with that but it is annoying. Of course, the possibility exists that there is something else fishy going on with the computer that is causing this. I haven't heard of anyone else having the same issue.

Ugh, I want to use it, but my MAC ver. dosen't work with it so I'm stuck with IE until I get a new Computer. Dang it!! :(

I've been using 2.0 for about a month now and so far it has been as stable as the previous version for me.

I don't like the keyboard shortcuts in Firefox since they so often conflict with the Web sites I may be browsing, but while Alt-S may be new it has been enough of a problem that I just haven't used keyboard shortcuts at all for a long time. I can't remember.

However, if you don't want the History menu option (and it isn't something I would ever use, you can install the MenuEditor Add On and turn it off. This will, I believe, make Alt-S work in your preferred way again.
