After a fairly well-documented resistance to all Netscape based browsers, I have chosen to step into the darkside. To those who were offended by anything derogatory I might have said about their favorite browser, I offer my most well-meant apologies. I was wrong, and I'm not afraid to admit that.
On to business! There were features in MyIE2/Maxthon that I want badly, and I need help getting them. I will use Firefox forever if someone can tell me how. I know there's a very active community out there for it, and with an open-source browser I'm sure the features I want are available.
? Super Drag Drop, the ability to click a link and hold, drag it an inch away. It opens in a new tab which I will get to once I'm done with the page on which I'm browsing.
? Setting up custom searches from the address bar. In MyIE2, I could set it up so if I typed "d cows" it would give me a dictionary definition for cows, "g cows" would give me a google search, "i cows" would give me a google image search and so on ad nauseam.
? Importing bookmarks from IE
? Auto refreshing pages, set to any interval I please.
? Where's my cookies? Can I just stay logged in to OSNN.net without having the password manager remember my password?
? Minimalist (tiny) skins, because I want to see a maximum amount of the page I'm browsing.
? FlashSave: The ability to show all flash files on an HTML and let me download them just like any other file (E.g. Homstarrunner.com cartoons).
? Links to good places for skins/plugins/etc.
? Disabling Anti-right-click scripts on a site.
? A way to murder people who use the aforementioned scripts, because they probably are jerks anyway and deserve nothing better than a greusome death.
I appreciate all your help; those are the only things that keep me from ditching MyIE2 entirely, and if you can do that, you've won me over along with a lot of other MyIE2 lovers. By the way, this post is being written over Firefox
