mAcOdIn Veteran Posted July 15, 2004 Veteran Share Posted July 15, 2004 Well the main feature I use is that it's not IE. I don't have to worry about it, spyware, vulnerabilities, I can open email in the mail client confident that some virus wont auto execute. So security for me is my main one. However feature wise I really like the find as you type feature, which makes navigating easier with the keyboard. It's soo much better than pressing tab over and over until you get the right link. The google search is also a great feature.

mAcOdIn Veteran Posted July 15, 2004 Veteran Share Posted July 15, 2004 awww yes of course Tabbed Browsing totally forgot, what exactly is Find as you Type? without clicking in any typing box, just start typing something. An example would be if you typed "macodin" than mozilla would highlight my name you could then just open my profile right there. You could type a news story like say "apple reveals" and it would highlight the apple reveals g5 imac story and then you could open that link. All without the mouse. it's very handy.

shake Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 Addblocker Google Bar Tabbed browsing (specialy that fact that a link opens in a new tab if u click on it with the middle mouse button) view page-source (color coded and formated as opposed to IE that shows page source in a plain notepad) Also not always useful but when u can find links on a web page by starting typing, the browser starts highlighting the most probable link which u can then open by pressing enter Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/190578-what-is-the-most-useful-feature-you-use-in-mozilla/#findComment-2490143 Share on other sites More sharing options...
