Can't get it to DL anything + History screwed.

First off, I like this browser. I'm stuck with IE at work, and Netscrap won't install (no admin rights sad smiley ). Version 0.2.1 is a BIG improvement over version 0.1. Good work! One or two bugs/features still to be worked out though.

1. It refuses point-blank to download anything. I click on the links, but nothing happens. Is there something i'm missing here, or what?

2. The history has a bit of a tendancy to get confused. Sometimes it's fine, but then it'll forget the whole lot, or jump about in the history.

3. A feature yet to be implemented I guess but cutting and pasting to the address bar doesn't seem to work.

4. In this form (don't know about others, but I guess so), if I focus goes to another window, and then back to the browser, I can't type in the main text box, without first clicking in one of the above text boxes (eg the 'subject' box).

I'm sure there are many others, but then this is just an early beta (alpha?) release. Keep up the good (hard) work.

Ep.

Some hints :

- as for 1), one way to solve it (and to generally improve a lot of other things) is to download a recent nightly build of Mozilla, unzip it, and copy kmeleon.exe in the \bin directory. Then kmeleon will use the Mozilla downloading capability.

- as for 3), keyboard shortcuts don't work (control-C/V) but the cut/copy/paste in the right-click menu will.

HTH,
fred

I had the problem that I could not view any www-pages other than those on my own hard disk. The problem was solved by adding the proxy information in the file all.js, as described in the FAQ.
