Mozilla again...

January 27, 2003 · 3 comments

Okay, so now I’ve started to use Mozilla, and in particular the tabbed browsing feature more heavily.

Now, the problem is that I’ll set up a browser window for the active work I’m doing (the web page, some admin pages for reloading files on the server, etc.), and that’s good. I’ll have another window with my calendar, my time logging, etc.

But then evey once in a while, I’ll accidentally hit Alt-F4, and all of my elaborate setup will be gone. It would be nice if Alt-F4 would just close a single tab, or if it could at least be configured to ask me before closing five tabs with one keystroke …

Oh, well, the perfect browser is still some ways off.

    i've got mine my perfect browser is chimera. tabbed browsing, open source, fast, etc. unfortunately it's mac os x only so you don't get to use it. but try phoenix which is also mozilla based, also has tabbed browsing, and i've heard is really good on windows.

    Add MultiZilla to Mozilla Lars, I had the same issue with Mozilla until I installed MultiZilla. Now, Mozilla starts with several pages and Mozilla restarts with all the tabs you had open when you closed it!

    Thanks Hey, Bart, thanks for the tip. Now I'm running Multizilla. Looks good so far.
