ummm yourself. Try sitting someone with bare minimal computer experience down for the first time and see what their reaction is. I'm sure MS beta tested it but, as I said, this is turning into a common complaint after a grand total of one day. > This is true.

That is only true if you can permanently adjust the behavior after being warned. Its not true all the time, but some operations are only allowed after a temporary 'ok'. You can't ALWAYS say "allow this action for this web site". Interestingly GMail is written in such a way as to not raise any eyebrows, while FCKEditor seems to be quite the punching bag. Another common complaint: When IE refuses to allow something, and the user clicks to allow the action, IE refreshes the page, which in turn destroys the users work. When IE is barfing as the result of a Save button that makes for a messy support call. So far, IE7 seems to have been built as the defender of the lowest common denominator-type user, with the power-user / intranet types getting the sharp end of the stick. I will say, though, that the final version is much more amenable than RC1 was. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Janitor, MSB Web Systems mysecretbase.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:257538 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
