Basically, but its intergrated, so you get instant preview i think and stuff like that.

Its dreamweaver free, and open source!

favicons in firebird

for some reason, Firebird is slowly loosing the ability to remember my favicons, seemingly one by one and randomly. Whenever I restart firebird, another icon is not displayed. Is there a way to "reset" the favicon database?

Thanks on advance. EJ

Clearing the cache clears out the favicons of all your bookmarks. Give that a shot, and see if it helps

You could try installing this extension to see what it can do. I haven't ever used it before, so I don't know if it'll solve the problem, but I guess it's worth a shot.

"Things they left out"
"More Options" appears under the tools menu. There are panels for Languages, MIME-types, security certificates, http, locale, debugging, and networking. You are also able to configure favicons, image resizing, smooth scrolling, and Find as you Type.

reads like a great idea, but I get a lot of gobberish on my screen when I click the install link.....

Hmm that's odd...it's just an XPI file. You should get the little install dialog box.

Hey, that's a pretty cool little icon. Thanks, muzikool.

 

[Henyman]

[muzikool]

I like it too.

 

[Perris Calderon]

that's one of the nicest ocons I've seen for any application

Hmmm, I don't really like it Guess I'm alone on that one?

 

[NetRyder]

It's actually for the Mozilla browser, not Firebird...hence, the dinosaur and not the bird.
SPeedY: You're not alone on that one. I don't really like it too much either.

This is what I use on my dock:

 

[muzikool]

The one above that NetRyder posted is the one I have been using. I haven't switched to the new one yet because I'm not sure that I like it as much. I do like it though, just to set the record straight.

 

[muzikool]

The front page is back to its old tricks again, stretching out on Firebird. I didn't change a thing with the browser either... is this issue recurring for anyone else?

 

[SPeedY_B]

Using the default on here..

firebird is.... slow.. compared to msie
.. I always used to use it before, but now it just takes so long to load it. Does everyone else (on windows) feel that FireBird is much slower loading than IE.

I know that IE is basically Explorer.exe....

... I am looking for a point in my last post, but I can't seem to find it.
