Jeremy1 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 but can we help those who may travel to the dark side? I say let them screw up their Windows install, but I doubt what you posted is against the rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kstruble Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 After installing IE7 RC1, the little up/down arrows on Neowin's homepage (to toggle announcement view, browse the latest announcements, etc.) no longer do anything. Anyone else notice that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illicit Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 I am downloading it right now. Thanks for the heads up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathiasdm Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 ACID2 test comparison with Opera: Not that the ACID2 test really matters, but I thought the result was quite funny. Woops, I was going to reply seriously to that, as I read 'Note that the ACID2 test really matters,' Anyways, I agree. It's funny to see. However, I'm glad they're fixing more common bugs first. I only have to add 1 conditional line for IE7 to my page! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lil_psc Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 tab browsing just doesnt feel the same in IE. In firefox its very smooth, tabs r moveable. The 1 close button per tab is just plain stupid; something i hope firefox will drop in ver2 i even feel more comfortable with IE6 non tab than using IE7 and way to go MS i unistalled IE7 beta3 and u give /SYSTEM ROOT/CMD not found error at startup...

G4M3R Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 I love what they are doing with Firefox 2, but you are right about the tab browsing in IE7 not feeling right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boz Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 RC1 works pretty damn awesome for me. I'm very satisfied. I had problems with betas with rendering pages correctly etc, but this one works awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gohankid77 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Definite speed increase compared to Beta 3. I wish I could say "screw IE6 because IE7 is much easier to develop Web pages for", but alas, 'tis not possible yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deactivated01032015 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 my experience with IE 7 RC1 is pretty bad. After installing it and restarting computer I've finished with message saying that normalize.dll is missing. I tried everything, but after hour of thinking I've decied to reinstall Windows.

XerXis Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 hehehe, good point. :D PS: by the way, RC1 is running fine here. Still have some troubles like it won't go automatic for the next blank windows when u're on a internet banking site, and it still eating my RAM with 2,3 or four tabs opened. Using like 50mb. Going back again to I.E 6 =| ie 6 uses arround 80 mb in total when 3 sites are open, about firefox and opera i won't even start. So 50 mb looks very decent to me.

Crazysah Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Thanks. I downloaded it and installed it and it seems very good. Good going Microsoft! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yuxi Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 After reading all the comments I'm inclined to try this now, after my experiences with Beta 2 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mancode20 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 I echo the sentiments in this thread. It's pretty good. Loads pages faster than Beta 3. My only problem is, has anyone else noticed the font looks weird when you type in form boxes? Like say searching on Google. Maybe it's because I have ClearType on. It just looks strange. Did they change the default font from Beta 3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hastin Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 It just looks strange. Did they change the default font from Beta 3? Cleartype doesn't seem to work in Javascript created text boxes and text. (Like from a popdown menu, etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IE 7 now has the drag and drop tabs. you can move them around. It aperied in beta 3. and might have improved in RC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maeby Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 hahaha well usually you would just get a site error saying wamu.com doesnt support IE7 because of the use of SSL 3.0 or some **** like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midnight Mick Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Is there a way to select a favourite (Left click) & get it to open in a new tab by default instead of middle clicking yet as per older builds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
