Safari vs. Firefox

June 15, 2007 – 9:39 pm

I used Safari 3 for a couple of days… It’s nice, but there are fewer things that annoy me about Firefox than Safari.

Using Safari I get tons of windows… it’s like tabbed browsing doesn’t even exist… I rarely want more than one browser window…

AdBlock Filterset G does not work with Safari…

I guess those are the two biggies..

  2. “Safari” “Preferences” “Tabs” “Enable Tabbed browsing”
    Gets rid of one problem.
    But Firefox still has its advatages. It likes certain sites more, for one. . .

  3. Yeah, I mean even with tabbed browsing… most links open in new windows unless I command click them, and some links open in new windows even if I command click them…

  4. even if you go to “preferences” “General” and at the bottom click the box that says “open links from applications” in a new tab in the current window?

    Then again, I’m working from a Mac, so maybe it’s different. . . but this works for me.

  5. I\’m using a mac…

    I had an extension installed that made it work 99% of the time, but it was one of those beg-ware programs, and it didn\’t work 100% of the time so I got rid of it…

    When I select \”cmd-click opens links in new tab in current window\” that mostly works, but I don\’t want to cmd-click things, I want to just click them… If I de-select that (which I would assume means regular click opens links in a new tab in current window) there is no way to open things in a new tab short of right clicking…
