Opera. I've tried Firefox, but I couldn't get it to import Opera's bookmarks, despite using a program that apparently could do it... Also its download manager doesn't support resuming/pausing and stuff.

And it's so huge and bloated! Opera is a meg smaller and comes with e-mail clients and all sorts of other stuff...

Opera, or lynx/links. I just can't take any browser in between seriously anymore.

I only use firefox for really lightweight braindead things. Like on the rare occcasions i actaully close opera and need to free up its footprint [being an industrial grade browser i permit it industrial footprint, partly influenced by usually having at least 20-30 tabs open in it], like when i'm playing morrowind or nwn and need to look summat up on them quickly.

If i try to use that many tabs with Firefox it gets just really ugly awkward and tedious, thuogh admittedly that implies it isn't ugly and awkward already

And not having mouse-gestures is crippling

Some extension allows mouse gestures.

It did annoy me at first that Firefox had so very little to start off with and I had to separately download extensions, but I realise now that the little extra work after install was probably a good thing, leaving me with nothing more or less than what I want. I've set up this extension to have more or less exactly the same mouse gestures as opera.
I too use Opera if I'm viewing lots and lots of windows on something (the ability to save the tabs is great) and Firefox for quick browsing of stuffs. and IE if I'm doing web design.

But firefox really doesn't have a very good icon. It should be less fox-related and more fire-related.

Also, it totally says I've voted when I haven't. Someone's been stealing my IP.

Also, this may be stealing the thunder from a future poll, but why use perl? PHP is the next big thing. What does perl do that PHP doesn't?

BUT IT DOES!!! (for the MILLIONTH time)

But it requires an extra extention. Opera has them already, no need to download extra stuff.

I generally build sites to be viewed in firefox, b/c firefox is MUCH more compliant with the W3c standards than IE is with its b@stardized Microsoft standards. Therefore, it it renders right in firefox, it will probably render correctly in any other browser as well.

Try as they might, university administrators couldn't find the server. Working with Novell Inc., IT workers tracked it down by meticulously following cable until they literally ran into a wall. The server had been mistakenly sealed behind drywall by maintenance workers.

Stop poking me.

Ahahahahahaa!!

I'll remember that the next time that everything renders properly in Opera and Firefox and Links, and i need to kludge things to make it show up in IE as well..

IE follows w3c with about the same consistency and intention that Vikings followed Tofu merchants..

Dor, you've just made my day worth going to work for...

FireFox all the way, oh yes!!

I've been using v0.8 for a while now and am more than impressed to date . However, I downloaded v0.9 and I thought it seemed a little too much like Mozilla (which reminds me of Netscr*p Navigator; the latter being banned from my computer, upon pain of death), in-so-far-as it seemed to lose that "distinct" touch that v0.8. But heck, that's just my opinion, although I do like some of the newer features introduced in 0.9 - maybe it's just the back and forward button icons I don't like in v0.9... (call me picky, but hey... ).

Still - whatever I think, firefox as a whole gets my vote, simply for the fact that it isn't IE . Especially after yesterday's announcement of a couple of major "security issues" (a.k.a "flaws") in IE... . All-in-all, firefox just seems so less "clunky" than IE in my opinion.

I do it the other way round.

Lots more people use IE, so it makes sense to make it look okay in IE, if you're aiming for a general audience.

CSS tends to look fairly similar in all browsers (but IE corrects your mistakes, like accepting = instead of : and other browsers don't), so it isn't usually a huge problem.
