Hi Lee,
Not sure what you mean, but feel free to prove your point instead of
stating opinion as fact.
The following features are new and unique to Netscape Navigator 9.
Visual Refresh
Netscape Navigator 9's theme has been updated to save screen-space and
leave more room for the websites you visit.
URL Correction
Navigator 9 will automatically correct common typos in URLs. For
example, if you accidentally type googlecom, Navigator will fix it be to
google.com. The browser will watch for nearly 30 different types of
common mistakes and correct them for you (asking you to confirm, if you
choose to enable confirmation).
Link Pad
The Link Pad is a new sidebar feature that allows you to save links/URLs
that you want to visit later without cluttering your bookmarks. Just
drag a link over the Link Pad status bar icon and drop it to save it in
the Link Pad. By default, clicking on an item in the Link Pad will open
it in the browser and remove it from the list, saving you the step of
deleting it.
Extension Compatibility
Navigator 9 shares an architecture with the latest Mozilla technologies;
as such, Navigator 9 will let you install extensions that are compatible
with Firefox ® 2.
Sidebar Mini Browser
You've always been able to have bookmarks open in the sidebar, but we've
improved this functionality and extended it to all links, not just
bookmarks. Additionally, we've added a navigation toolbar to the sidebar
for even easier split-screened browsing. Just right-click on a link and
select "Open Link in Sidebar" to get started!
Restart Navigator
A small but oft-requested feature: you can now restart Navigator (and
keep your current tabs intact) by selecting "Restart Navigator" from the
File menu.
Resizeable Textarea
Drag the bottom-right corners of text fields in forms to add more typing
space.
Tab History
Opening a link in a new tab will give the new tab the same history as
the source tab for a more seamless tabbed browsing experience.
OPML Sup****t
Netscape Navigator sup****ts im****ting and ex****ting your bookmarks in
OPML, a popular format for sharing lists of newsfeeds.
Throbber
By popular demand, the Netscape 7-style throbber is back. Click on it
any time to visit Netscape.com.
Combined Stop/Reload button
To save space in your toolbar, we've combined the stop and reload
buttons. Because you never need both at the same time, the toolbar will
only show the relevant half of the pair.
Lastly, WeatherBug has been taken off Netscape 9, so if that annoyed you
then 9 is better than 8 for you.
