Java, JavaScript, Frames, CSL, >SSL, etc? And what do you use on the FreeBSD side of things? Frames and tables seem to work okay given the obvious limitations of screen size. All the JavaScript I've seen seems to choke the browser pretty bad. SSL works fine. I haven't yet tried to install the add-on Java module, so I can't comment on it. But otherwise it will *try* to render any page thrown at it, with the expected difficulties rendering wide pages. I'm wondering how the Linux-based Sharp Zaurus stacks up as a PDA. On FreeBSD, my browser of choice is Konqueror. I know Opera has been a personal favorite of many on this list, but I haven't been able to get it to work reliably. But I still do most of my browsing using IE6. << Chip Morton >> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
