Firefox, I Still Love You.

Firefox Has Broken a Critcial Browser Feature.

Firefox Has Broken a Critcial Browser Feature.

But you need to get your shit together.  Why do you auto-complete itunes when I start out a web site with ‘w-e-b’?  It doesn’t  make sense.  I visit WEBmasterworld.com 10 times a day.

Auto-complete is KING.  Google finally put it on their homepage.  Everyone uses it for web-forms, so much so that it’s a feature on millions of toolbars.

So why did you break it in 3.0?

Are you upset that I tried Chrome?

She meant nothing to me.   I swear.

It’s just that…  that… well, we haven’t really been seeing eye to eye lately.  Maybe you and I should just go somewhere quiet for a few days, and I’ll recode that buggy auto complete?  Yeah?  You’d like that too?

    Makes the location bar normal again.

    From what I can tell, oldbar simply changes the format of the bar, and does nothing to change how it chooses the list of URL’s.
