simsie Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 IE8 Beta 2 caused Napster to error and close on start up... That might be a Napster thing though. It was fine with Beta1 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/664024-internet-explorer-8-beta-2-post-your-bugs/page/2/#findComment-589727772 Share on other sites More sharing options...
splicer707 Posted September 1, 2008 Author Share Posted September 1, 2008 I'm not sure that's a bug... it happens to me on every website. But how can you stop a web site from loading if it's already loaded. Logic error point to Microsoft. Firefox disabled the 'stop' icon, Safari's 'stop' icon changes to refresh. I argue that this is lack of quality control.

NinjaGinger Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Every site I tried crashed IE8, want to debug then closes down completely. Back to IE7 and all is well, what bit I see looks nice but thats all I can say.

giantpotato Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 But how can you stop a web site from loading if it's already loaded. Logic error point to Microsoft.Firefox disabled the 'stop' icon, Safari's 'stop' icon changes to refresh. I argue that this is lack of quality control. It's not only used to stop a page from loading. If you go to a page with animated .gifs and press stop the gifs will stop moving.

wellofsouls Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Internet explorer 8 beta 2 crashes windows sidebar in windows vista X64 not really, if you do it on a clean installation. I suspect this (again) has something to do with the installer. But how can you stop a web site from loading if it's already loaded. Logic error point to Microsoft.Firefox disabled the 'stop' icon, Safari's 'stop' icon changes to refresh. I argue that this is lack of quality control. I guess it's kind of a "tradition" for IE ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/664024-internet-explorer-8-beta-2-post-your-bugs/page/2/#findComment-589728934 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quillz Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 The only major bugs I've found with Beta 2 is that it doesn't behave properly when clicking on a text link that jumps you to a certain point in the page, and text fields are messed up, also. But both of these are likely minor issues that can probably be fixed by a Beta 3 release.

gigapixels Veteran Posted September 7, 2008 Veteran Share Posted September 7, 2008 OMG! You are totally right. That's so _pause_ weird. :blink: I actually like that feature. It also stops any current data transfer, i.e. streaming Flash videos and such.

George P Global Moderator Posted September 10, 2008 Global Moderator Share Posted September 10, 2008 I still have the odd problem/bug where IE8b2, and even IE8b1 did this, stops updating my RSS feeds automatically for some reason. The only way I can seem to get it to start doing it again is to close and restart IE. Otherwise i'll have to refresh all manually. I have my RSS feeds in the fav bar btw. But I don't think this has anything to do with it.
