Not Stop & Go or Stop & Refresh - Go & Refresh

Stop & Refresh are opposing actions, having a button flick between opposing actions is the last thing you want. How would you like it if your window close button switched between minimize and close at seemingly random moments.

I think the Go button should alternate with Refresh. Both load the URL in the location bar and have near enough the same action.

Tab Widths

Is it worth considering this wrt tabbed browsing & tab-widths:

Make it so tabs _don't_ resize when you close a tab by clicking on its [x] _until_ the mouse is moved out of the tabbar. So in effect whilst the mouse is in the tabbar, tab-width is constant (to allow for easy closing of multiple windows) _until_ the mouse moves out of the tabber, at which point tab widths can resize if required.

This is a half-way house between fixed tab-widths and variable tab-widths, with the best of both worlds imo. Steve England 02:49, 6 Mar 2006 (PST)

Address bar Vs. Search box

I think that, today, the search box is much more important that the address bar. Usually, y don't write addresses, I use the search box, Google, or a bookmark.

So, Why is the address bar so big and the search box so small? I think that is better a bigger search box. Savonarola 18:28, 11 Mar 2006 (PST)
