- Fully? Last version I tried (4a) Did not allow for textarea
- tags. Does 5a allow these? I that answer is yes, then I agree
- with you. If not, then IBrowse does not _fully_ support forms.
- At least not the version available at this time.
-

-
- They may or may not. But we are compaing versions that are are
- available right now. Not that become available. And that would
- be a minus point gainst Ibrowse. Meaning it costing money against
- this version of Aweb being basically free.
-
- > : - Freeware. No fee. Unless you wish to use multiple windows.
- > True, but the version th-t supports 3.0/NHTML will cost you.
-
- It does. But so will Ibrowse once it's out of beta. And as I
- said above. We are comparing currently available versions.

-
- To each his own here.
-
- > : - Available at AmiNet sites around the world.
- > True, but it this re-lly - problem?
-
- Have you tried downloading R5a in the last week? I couldn't. The
- only site it is available at was too crowded. Sure sounds like a
- problem to me...
-
- > Seems to be slower th-n Ibrowse when processing im-ges.
- > Destroys im-ges when decoding them.
-
- Destroys images? What do you mean?
-
- > Sorry, but I'm more impressed with Ibrowse th-n with this product.
- > It m-y be better th-n Mos-ic, but Ibrowse seems to be more polished.
-
- If you prefer polished over stable and using low resources, than you
- probably should be. But juding from the problems I had in getting the
- various version of Ibrowse to behave here, I would not call it that
- polished. Note, I've not grabbed R5 yet. I'm kind awaiting until the
- rush dies down at the omnipresence site...
