Well for the biggest thing is that FF &TB don't work all that well together. This what I mean. Suppose in an email or news post there is a mailto: or Web Link (URL) to follow. With the web link say I am in TB and I click Link I have to wait for FF to open Then wait for website to come up. After the first time the wait for FF to open is no longer their but you still switch and wait for site to come up. But the worse part is when there is a mailto: in a website. You click on the mail to. FF opens a blank page first, then opens TB then TB opens a Blank page write an email but the page is unaddressed. In SeaMonkey the switch from email to Webpage is instantaneous. and when you click on the mailto; it instantaneously switch to email and its automatically addressed to the mailto; link address. There should be no intervention in mailto: it should simply switch to TB and have the email already addressed. There should be no blank FF page generated. When I was in all the support groups (FF,TB, SM) I brought this up many times. and no one saw it a disadvantage. IF you ever used SM and saw how everything works so seemlessly, The would consider the TB/FF method a PIA. -- Phillip Mj Jones, CET _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
