Borklog: One entry

21 November 2000

Joel on Software writes up Netscape Goes Bonkers. Taking apart the new Netscape 6. Personally, I'm still on Netscape 4.0X, which is one of the last versions before it beame too "helpful" and added autocompletion in the Location box. Using post-4.0X Netscapes always annoyme. Either the bar autocompletes too fast and I get a page I didn't want (usually a page I visited months ago and have no interest in now) or it takes a long time (where long is on the order of seconds) to autocomplete, if at all. I've poked and prodded all over mac Netscape 4.X's and couldn't find a documented (or undocumented) parameter to turn it off.
