Re: [WSG] The way forward for Web Standards
In among many little features and additions the three things that seem to stand out(so far) for me as far as the Firefox 1.0PR is concerned are: 1. Find feature. when you click 'Find in page' a find bar appears just above the statubar and the find functionality is live. Neat! 2. RSS as discussed earlier in this thread. 3. view Page Style On Wed, 15 Sep 2004 20:27:42 +0100, Patrick H.
