Well, the main features I use most are the Auto Fill Form, and the ability
to click and hold the back button to get a listing of previous sites
visited, so I can go right back to a page without repeated clicking of the
back button.  One other feature I like:  if I'm viewing a page full of photo
links that are coded as attachments (such as to Yahoo! messages), instead of
simply showing me a new window with the photo in it, Safari automatically
downloads it to my desktop, and then shows it to me with Preview, whether I
wanted to save a copy of it or not.  After viewing several pages this way, I
was left with a real mess of unwanted files on my desktop.  There seems to
be no preference to stop this.  In IE, it simply shows a photo to me.  Then,
if I decide I want a copy, I simply click on the photo, and a menu pops up
with (among other options) Download Image to Disk, or drag it to the
desktop.

When Safari incorporates these features, I'll love it!


Gerry
