-=SD=- Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 (edited) A tab size question, since I can't use TBE anymore, how do I adjust the tab size to make them smaller? /edit- Also, is there an extension to have drag and drop links? Just as MyIE2 does, you just drag the links or text on the page to open a new tab?

OptiPlex Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 I don't know why they changed names, Firebird sounds better than Firefox!

deep_sky Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 For all teh n00bs who insist on being ignorant and refusing to do any sort of research before they run off at the mouth: http://www.mozilla.org/projects/firefox/fi...x-name-faq.html The answer why the name was changed. To further clarify for those who can't figure out google, Mozilla is a different browser(and product) than Firefox.

MatthewK Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 What sounds better? Mozilla or FireFox? I know the name doesn't matter, but a name like Firefox certainly ignites the imagination and it doesn't disappoint...

sanctified Veteran Posted February 12, 2004 Veteran Share Posted February 12, 2004 what worry me about is that a name causes that much controversy, its just a name, it doesnt determine how good is the software or how bad it is Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/139683-firefox-08/page/19/#findComment-1724239 Share on other sites More sharing options...
the evn show Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 (edited) I know its called firebird/fox. But its going to replace Mozilla 1.x, so why avoid confusion and just call it Mozilla 2. Firefox their next line of browsers anyways. Mozilla is one product, it's a suite of programs integrated into one monstrosity - the most populare component is a browser. Firebird is another product, it's just a browser and part of the mozilla suite. There are some browsers that are even more stripped down versions of mozilla (they don't even do FTP). The only thing they have in common is that they share the same engine. Firebird is a stripped down browser for people who are not interested in any of the features of mozilla aside from the browser. It's like Microsoft Office Pro vs Microsoft word. EDITED to fix wrongness.

zerf25 Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 from what I understand Firefox won't replace Mozilla until Firefox hits 1.5 and that is still ways away now where can I get this Pinstripe theme for Windows??? hurry up with porting it already.... ;) looking awesome, can't wait Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/139683-firefox-08/page/19/#findComment-1724243 Share on other sites More sharing options...
zerf25 Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 on that same note, what resources are there to make your own theme for Firefox.. now don't hate me if it seems really easy, but I wasn't able to find anything at mozilla.org or through google Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/139683-firefox-08/page/19/#findComment-1724260 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Japlabot Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 /edit- Also, is there an extension to have drag and drop links? Just as MyIE2 does, you just drag the links or text on the page to open a new tab? works for me... I didn't even know i could do that! good tip.... I just dragged a link into the address bar and it worked, dragging it into an empty space on the tab bar made a new tab for the link too :cool: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/139683-firefox-08/page/19/#findComment-1724326 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just dragged a link into the address bar and it worked, dragging it into an empty space on the tab bar made a new tab for the link too :cool: Yea but that's more like super long drag and drop, I just want super drag and drop right on the page (like MyIE2), not to the address bar :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/139683-firefox-08/page/19/#findComment-1724351 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogerroger Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 ok thanks! more questions: how can i enable cookies? even after i check enable cookies it still logs me off of neowin. is there a theme that makes it look like internet explorer? i'm homesick :( lol :p do the automatic tag things not work on neowin? One of two ways to get it to work. One - Bookmark the site. This always works (at least for me). Or two, click tools, options, privacy, enable cookies for originating website only! As for themes, look here http://texturizer.net/firefox/themes/ Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/139683-firefox-08/page/19/#findComment-1724437 Share on other sites More sharing options...
