Anyone know how Netscape 6 (Mozilla in Netscape clothing ;-) does on stability

Chris,

It's worse, Mozilla 0.7 also has some issues, Mozilla 0.6 is probably the
best so far.

I use it as my main browser.

You might also want to check out the Beonex Communicator (based on Mozilla,
but with bug/security fixes) http://www.beonex.com.

I tried to find out some months ago which browser people preferred.  Since I 
worked out how to stop the worst memory leak in NS4.x (disable Java script) 
it has been usable, but I'd rather more... I want to learn CSS, but it's not 
possible with a browser that is so broken.

Mozilla?  Just as bad, and even more bloaty.
Netscape 6?  No better than Mozilla, really... but that's hardly a suprise.
Amaya?  Wish it handled frames...
HotJava? .still waiting.. there's my page!
Opera?  Almost... almost...
Konqeror?  Yes... does CSS, HTML (and isn't tollerant of broken HTML), just 
has a small problem with their Password handling.  It's RFC compliant, but 
not 'user' compliant. (o8

So... I'm still using NS4.75.. and actually thinking IE under Linux wouldn't 
be such a bad thing...

Likewise... 'cept that IE probably throws open a shedload of handy M$
security problems :-S

But hey, Mozilla is open source, so what's stopping all you C(C++?) coders
out there getting involved and fixing the problem?

The, again, given that DC have got the open source since much better than
Netscape, is there any chance they could give them some pointers ;-)

cheers,

Chris
