Does IE7 conform to the most basic coding standards yet?

Re: IE7 Love it or Hate it?
 

I love it, but yet I hate it.

I love it because it is getting closer to actually displaying websites correctly, I still see gaps where there shouldn't be but their PNG support is much better. But I still don't like the interface...new or old. I also didn't like the what - 14mb download?

I think Microsoft is heading in the right direction with the release of this browser, it still needs allot of work, but it's getting there. I feel that one of the main problems with Internet Explorer is that it's so tied into the Operating System that it's sort of hard to do a major upgrade with out upgrading the OS (hence, vista)

I'll check it out some more and edit this post later.

[edit 1] I found spell check, I haven't tested it out yet but that makes me go yay! :D err...that came with google bar, opps!!
[edit 2] Anyone found out how to make the tabs open in the same window yet? Nevermind found it, it's in internet options which was kind of hidden =]

I'm a firefox and Opera guy (gotta love those mouse gestures)

Re: IE7 Love it or Hate it?
 

well, i love how independent developers can write software and plugins for firefox... the google preview is pretty nifty, makes me laugh whenever ask has a commercial about how their search features are better now...

firefox had me sold with tabbed browsing

Re: IE7 Love it or Hate it?
 

Ie7 looks beter than before.. duh.. its been 5 years, but it uses WAYY too much memory compared to Firefox.

I have never had a crash using Firefox.

Re: IE7 Love it or Hate it?
 

I've seen Internet Exploder 7. I'm running Firefox 2.0 now. Firefox 2 covers any advantage IE7 had, with all the Firefox goodness. :cool:

No comparison.

I like firefox aswell, but it needs an FTP feature...

Re: IE7 Love it or Hate it?
 

haha, i was trying to upload some files to my teams website... the webteam guy in charge was getting irritated at me because he told me to sign in, and i was like, how!?! i can't do file, sign in

finally i told him i was going to try it with IE and he said oh! you didn't tell me you were using firefox *smacks head

Re: IE7 Love it or Hate it?
 

Use the "FireFTP" extension. It's what I use for my servers (under Win32(I just use gFTP under Linux))

Re: IE7 Love it or Hate it?
 

FireFTP is a good extension. If you want FTP with firefox its a good choice. Though I generally use a stand alone FTP client.

Re: IE7 Love it or Hate it?
 

Hate it!

The GUI is horrible--I just use Firefox themed to look like IE 6.0. It works great, looks great, is fully Internet standards compliant,and doesn't crash! :)

Just my $0.02...

I found this interesting article about the memory usage of IE7 vs. Firefox...Enjoy

I Wouldn't call myself a Microsoft Guy and I have not tried MacOS or anything else so I just stick to what I have. IE7 Stinks yeah it may be better then 5 & 6 but it fails in so many other aspects. I'm gonna hold my breathe that when MS Vista Comes Along then MS IE7 will work properly otherwise I will just stick to MS XPPro and MS IE6 at least this stuff I can figure out on how to use in comparison to just guessing.

Re: IE7 Love it or Hate it?
 

I use a browser called maxthon which uses internet explorer to render the pages, but adds tabs and some other good stuff like gestures. Worth a try, and it's interface is much better than IE7's (I preferred IE6 really).

This is me using Microsoft Security Hole with Internets Functionality as little as possible :D

Only as much as it provides me with automatic updates.
