* starts Firebird 0.6 one more time and investigates what the problem with it was again *

well, i've been having major problems getting all the needed plugins to work correctly--or getting them to work at all.
Plus, it still misses too much features that MyIE2 does have.

But as i said earlier, i really looks promising and i'm sure that future releases will take it to a higher level, making it (hopefully) worth downloading it again.

Many browsers show the "favicon" in the tabs... but IE and IE based ones *ONLY SHOW IT* when the site is bookmarked in your favorites.

Absolutely NOT true, Google (for example) shows it too, and is definately not bookmarked. (using MyIE2)

He did say IE

But he also said "IE based ones", and MyIE2 is IE based...

Because i'm perfectly happy with MyIE2 now.. no need to change browsers just to be able to always see the favicon, methinks?

ah, yes, you need to install the registry first in order to do that
or, better: use the installer

The forum members are important not the forumsoftware itself.
The MYIE2 forum consist of very nice and helpful members. Like here on the SMF board.

klumy · August 18, 2003, 12:59:17 PM

I see.
IMO it's not so fast like YabbSE or SMF. But it has a very good professional design. Especially I like the handling of BBC tags. It's a mixture of JAvascript dialogs and normal tags like here in SMF.

The official Terminator 3 Forum also uses WebWiz Forum. Just for info

What is a ganter, if I may ask?

klumy · August 18, 2003, 01:24:22 PM

I see. Thanks for the explanation

SparkieGeek · August 18, 2003, 01:50:24 PM

Part of the confusion might have been that it was spelt wrong... at least I assume it was! Gander

klumy · August 18, 2003, 01:52:09 PM

yeah Babylon didn't show any translation for ganter. But gander works

mattsiegman · August 18, 2003, 02:05:40 PM

Then you've always said it wrong

regarding the Favicon thread:

It seems so this is an issue with IE. Because Opera and Mozilla shows the Favicon but IE 6SP1 not. IT has been also confirmed in MYIE2 Forum

klumy · August 19, 2003, 01:34:55 PM

Which 3 browser do you have installed?

Mine are

MYIE2, Opera, Mozilla
BUt MYIE2 is primary browser
