Did you just respond to your own post?



I like that fact that when I open a blank tab in IE, I can tell how I want things to appear, unlike with FF. Also, there ARE extensions or add-ons available with IE, but due to security, they are not as tightly integrated and therefore FF has better extensions.

Opera still wins in my book though.

Faster, lower memory footprint and more forward looking.

One more reason I LOVE IE7.

In IE7, I press Alt + S, just as I do in Outlook and BLAM, my post that I have just typed out is automatically submitted

In FF? Not so much

Yeah, Alt + S used to work in Firefox until the shortcut key for the History menu changed in some version. Here's the thread that I had posted in the feedback forum about it last year.

Alt + Shift + S is the new way to invoke the access key in Firefox.

I love IE7 because it correctly interprets my stylesheets probably 90% of the time, opposed to something like 50% of the time in IE6. Hooray for progress!!!
