Just finished installing Mozilla 1.7 and man, this thing is a beast.

I don't even need a separate mail client or anything else anymore since this has everything I needβ€”plus a bunch of stuff I don't.

Solid.

Am I losing my mind or what?

You're definitely losing it...😁

open in background page ???
I couldn't find it in Mozilla...😒
And how do I set an icon for the New Tab on the Navigation toolbar?πŸ˜•

Well, if you check the settings for the Tab Browser extension, you'll find every single crazy option imaginable... of course there's a way to choose where the tab opens...πŸ™

I REALLY am 😁

That's what everyone keeps saying... 😁

Just a textbook case of ignoring the facts... 😬

How long ago did I tell you all that Mozilla is the ultimate all-in-one solution, huh?

I've hit a snag: Blogspot isn't working on Mozilla. Head over to the subforum and check out the screenshots I posted there. πŸ˜‰

Look, I honestly couldn't tell if you actually managed to pull this off or if you're still stuck, but if it's not working: just go to View -> Toolbars -> Customize and then you can just drag & drop that "Open New Tab" icon right onto the Navigation toolbar.

And maybe we should swing by your blog too, just to be absolutely sure... right? 😁

What? That I posted three times using Internet Explorer? πŸ˜•

Lately, I just can't make sense of some of these spikes. πŸ˜•

I don't get it either, since everything is running perfectly fine in Chrome 😁

AAA?????? πŸ˜• πŸ˜• πŸ€”

I'm running Mozilla 1.5 and I can't get anything to work on this Blogspot. Maybe it's finally time to download a newer version???

This is driving me insane.

Chrome is actually really solid. It looks great and the design is spot on. If it weren't for Opera, it would be my go-to. But honestly, Opera is still just a class above everything else.

I haven't tested it with the Mozilla browser myself, but if it works on Chrome, it'll likely work on Mozilla too...

Just download the latest version. 😁

So, I’ve officially made the switch to Mozilla 1.7+. Using that "mostly crystal" theme now.
What can I say? The browser is solid. Pages load way faster than they ever did on Internet Explorer, and I'm finally done with those constant pop-ups. Honestly, props to Mozilla. πŸ‘ πŸ‘
Now I’m just sitting here wondering why I waited this long to make the jump. 😡 😡 I guess you live and you learn... 😁

Folks, I just installed Mozilla 1.7. This version is an absolute disaster.

The fonts are completely trashed. It looks like this thing doesn't even bother using the font server on Linux. Everything looks hideous. No matter how much I tweak the settings, I can't get the standard American characters to look right.

My blog still isn't working either. So, it's back to 1.5 for me.

I'm just trying to wrap my head around why the blog runs perfectly on Chrome, yet fails miserably on Mozilla!? Isn't it supposed to be the exact same engine? πŸ˜•

Listen, a Mozilla browser isn't the same thing as Firefox; we're talking about two different things here.

What do you mean they aren't the same? It's literally called Google Chrome.
