>I did a few weeks ago, and I must say that I am not impressed. What were you looking for (specifically)? What I like about Mozilla isn't necessarily the browser/email client/html tool/x-ray machine/bomb sniffing dog/. What I like about mozilla is the approach for creating GUI applications (XUL and javascript), its really neat once you dig into it. > It is clunky and slow. Yea, in places. Its definatly a product in development. They're working on it. If you're a non-political (or MS political) IE user, stick to IE. If you like interesting projects and don't mind a few issues, pull Mozilla from cvs and dig around a bit.

I remembered hearing the hype of how it was going to kill off IE as soon as they finished their Gecko rendering engine, and that it would be newer and faster and more powerful than ever. So, after I saw some positive comments by other users, I figured what the hell, I'll give it a shot. I was looking for a polished software application that would be able to give IE a serious run for its money. Let's just say I'm still looking. :) Richard Melton wrote: What I like about mozilla is the approach for creating GUI applications (XUL and javascript), its really neat once you dig into it. Yes, that sounds pretty cool. Richard Melton wrote: ... stick to IE. I will for now. When Mozilla is ready to compete with IE, I'll give it another shot. :) Jon Sagara When I want something, I just go out and buy it. That makes me a go-getter. -- My sister

I hear it crashes 10% more often and has a 15% larger footprint. Still not sure if it will actually host WinForms controls though... Do I sound bitter? ;) In all seriousness no, I've not heard anything. cheers, Chris Maunder
Can't you host C#/.NET controls in IE now - I thought you could?
Technically speaking the dictionary would define Visual Basic users as programmers.
But here again, a very generalized, liberal definition is being employed and it's wrong

You are the intrepid one, always willing to leap into the fray! A serious character flaw, I might add, but entertaining. Said by Roger Wright about me.

So I'm not the only one that has IE crash on them incessantly. Brad Jennings My latest nickname: Kidney Stone (Nickname courtesy of my roommates)

I thought so - we'd played with it and then we abandoned it as we would require that anyone who accessed the site had .NET installed

- just plain wrong - Tom Archer 5/12/02You can but it's broken. I've talked to the Dundas guys about how they are hosting their WinForms chart in IE and they've had to do some needlessly complicated stuff to get IE to host the control properly. I'll try and get Troy Marchand to write up something about it. cheers, Chris Maunder

but until we get .NET onto all desktops it ain't go to be no good to anyone outside of intranet

Probably quite a ways off yet, unless it changes before shipping, Windows .NET Server comes with IE 6.1 James "The elastic retreat rings the close of play as the last wave uncovers the newfangled way.
