Message: [QUOTE="j_freak, post: 734549, member: 51029"] Both Mozilla and Opera have trouble occasionally with javascript, but the newer versions of Opera are much better than the older ones. Can't say for Mozilla, cause I haven't used it enough yet. Okiewan-I don't want to get into an argument, but Opera is hardly amaturish. It has more features than both Mozilla and IE combined, and MUCH better security than IE. (last time they found a security bug they fixed it in 3 days and sent an email out to everyone on their mailing list urging them to download the new version. Compare this to M$'s policy of finding a bug and spending weeks, months, or years working on a bloated patch that you have to go LOOKING for to know you need it (unless it's a huge vulnerability, then they just tell the newspapers to run an article)) As for Opera's speed, yes, opera does indeed cache, as do foxfire and IE if you set them to. But, while surfing the web and visiting new pages not in the cache, Opera is still faster on our connection than IE. When IE encounters horrible connection speeds, it just sits there and does nothing for up to 5 minutes. Opera, on the other hand, starts loading the page, even if it is at 100 bytes per second. Now that I have used Firefox a bit, I have decided that I still like Opera more. It seems to be a bit faster (probably due to cache and connection settings), and Mozilla's compromise between tabs and windows (opening stuff in a window unless you tell it to open it in a tab) is very annoying. THe least they could do is have an option to open EVERYTHING in tabs rather than new windows (Opera has this option)... Oh, and of course firefox is faster than IE, everything is... :p [/QUOTE]
