Hello PHP World!

tony · 08-02-2008, 09:21 PM

I found out this site searching for a lesson in sessions and i really like the content. It's been years since I've been active in a forum, but PHP is worth it. I like sharing it and learning even more because I still need to learn more.

hope see you around.

Firefox Myths

Jim · 08-09-2008, 07:50 PM

That's why Opera is king Kalle! :>

delayedinsanity · 08-09-2008, 07:51 PM

Heh.

The Recommended Requirements for Firefox are much worse:

Recommended:
Pentium III 500 MHz CPU
128 MB of RAM
Windows XP

OH NOOOOOOO. You mean I have to have at least a P3?? OH NOOOES.

If you don't already have a p3, please, go spend the 30 dollars, and upgrade.

Sure there are a lot of myths out there, and a lot of things that people believe that are wrong. Firefox isn't necessarily better on all counts (Firefox2 used nearly as much memory as Windows does just to run). However two things that keep me using it, over Exploder, and always will as long as it stays this way;

1) Better W3C support. Period. They have always been ahead of IE on supporting recommendations and drafts.

2) You have the free choice to use Firefox or not. If you run Windows, you don't have the choice whether or not you want to have Exploder.

IE was original meant just to be apart of explorer to view webpages but evolved into a browser but was never seperated from it fully hence why. But I don't personally mind that.

I'm more Anti-IE than I am pro-firefox. If it wasn't for Firebug I would be using Opera right now.

That page was a bunch of half-truths. They give you half of some things, and rarely note Firefox 3.

The rest of it, I already know. I tend to keep up on security exploits, even though there are so many. Firefoxs biggest security flaw is that some programs (not mine of course

) can access the passwords that they store. They can also easily access the cookies (which you can do in IE anyway)

Firefox has less bugs than IE. The problem with Fx is the addons that can introduce security risks. [b]Internet Explorer has these too.[/b[

But, I am not going to go on an anti-IE rant. This is why I hate IE:

It was forced on us. Microsoft made us use it to get around their OS. They got sued like no tomorrow, and nothing happened...

Its conformance SUCKS. It sucks the big one. The big browsers are Firefox, IE, Safari, and Opera.

IE and Safari both suck because I hate the companies they are made at (screw quicktime...)

Firefox has Firebug. Opera is faster, more reliable, less resource intense, more secure, has a better UI, and is all around better than firefox, but it doesn't have firebug.

Kalle · 08-11-2008, 11:08 AM

I don't care about Firebug tbh, its not worth a change from a browser to another, in general I hate frontend debugging tools, plus it ain't THAT great in the end or atleast not for me.

IE isn't exactly forced on you even though it is sort of, same with Safari default on Mac's, Firefox/Gecko-like browsers on Linux. Yes you can ofcourse uninstall IE from a Windows based pc, which removes the binaries from %ProgramFiles%\Internet Explorer, but not the minimized version of IE thats actually apart of the explorer.exe thats used when its not linking to the "real" IE.

But yes, Opera is truely amazing =)

Aaron · 08-11-2008, 01:09 PM

It refactors source, gives you direct access to the source, tells you exactly where the source is in the DOM, allows you to edit it in real time, and gives you CSS styles <drool>

It's worth it to me. And firefox isn't that bad of a browser.
