roopurt18 Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Hmmm. I just had two windows of FF open. I tried to drag a tab from one instance to another and all it did was replace the existing page in the other with the page I dragged over. Which version of FF are you running? Mine is 3.0.15.

Zane Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 I'm using 3.5.5 just wondering, but are you minding the little arrow that appears when you drag the tab?..

.josh Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 i'm about 85% sure it's a recent thing (3.5) I vaguely recall some other thread in the past indirectly mentioning it as a new thing or something.

KevinM1 Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Now if only MS made their compatibility mode do IE6 also ?? You can get this result by playing with the rendering option in IE8's web development window. I'm a FF guy myself. Despite the improvements IE has made in the recent years, it still takes forever and a day to start, and just feels clunky, like it's held together with chewing gum and bailing wire. Chrome is nice, but I want better extension/add-on support before considering making the move. I'm also not a fan of its UI. I just think its anglular tabs look ugly and take too much room. I love FF because of how customizable it is. I'm currently rocking a good-looking minimalist UI that keeps my viewing space nice and large. Despite that, information like local weather, just about everything you'd want to know about a site (FireBug), and my Twitter feed are all available to me with a mouseover or single click of a status bar icon. Once they add Chrome-like transparency and a Chrome-inspired Stop/Refresh combo button, it'll have the nicest look of all the browsers. And good looks are VERY important to me given how long I stare at the thing.

Daniel0 Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Yeah but as far as I remember, it only supports IE7 and IE8 rendering mode. No IE6.
