Another possible solution that would work in most browsers is to write yourself a little HTML page and save it locally In the page have some javascript that selects the 'home page' you want either randomly or based on the date/time If you wanted to be really fancy you could save the page

In 0.9.7 in Linux, if you : 1. open a new browser session + type in a URL/select bookmark etc. 2. press ctl-t + type in a URL/select bookmark etc. 3. kill the tab with the 'x' 4. try to open mail from the chrome menu *nothing happens!* This common sequence seems to disrupt the javascript

0.9.7 - Looking good ...

Just upgraded from 0.9.6 - more than a trivial upgrade in my mind. Very pleased to see: 1. S/MIME support - I see my use of Netscape 4.x finally ending soon :-). I suspect this has been holding many corporate IT departments back. 2. email header viewing 3. Progress on customisation of cookie

This would probably be the ideal solution - if a user can set a preference for a href=... ...target=_blank to be opened in either a new window or a new tab, based on their personal inclination. Rob Allen wrote: It would also be nice if the pref made 'target=_blank' also open in a new

Print Preview - how do I go back?

Print preview in 0.9.6 is a nice feature - clearly a w.i.p. but a good start :-). I have a question about the functionality. When I have previewed a page - how do I cancel/go back to full web page (without pressing Reload or ctl-r)? As an aside there appear to be a few formatting problems -

If anyone is curious - the formating problem appears to be the result of the absence of a DOCTYPE tag. Saving the file locally and adding a standard 4.0 Transitional tag makes the page nicely formatted. Geraint Edwards wrote: I just tried Mozilla 0.9.5 (with default useragent

I just tried again and it now looks fine in Linux (build 200101202) as per your screenshot. I suspect its a work in progress on Microsoft's behalf. The rendering problem I saw (did not get screenshot I'm afraid) was the central table (within a DIV) overlapping the right hand set of links.
