  • Be glad you don't use RISC OS. Every browser there sucks even worse. Doesn't help that none are under active development.

    Browse was looking up, but then the company developing it was bought and they lost that division. Fresco was buggy, but maintained - until the company decided they'd be better off developing for STBs. Ditto for Oregano (the only one of them that could do CSS, and even then it was piss poor and actually felt like a Windows app - same as Mozilla on Mac =) ). And WebsterXL was written in BASIC for goodness sake. Slow, turgid and buggy. The Webite developer lost interest.

    Basically, the moment CSS started to be integrated into all the browsers, the companies either changed direction, or the developer put it in the 'too hard' basket. And it would be an awful lot of effort to port Mozilla, or any other browser. Pity.

    Maybe in November 2005 I'll have a bash at porting Konq. I expect that will be angst filled.

    Is that 3?
