Hi People,
I've seen something in tabbed browsing which I think is IMHO a wrong thing...
When clicking "Open a New Tab" to open a URL in a new tabbed inside Konqueror,
the first part of the data is received (html, jpg, etc) and then the tabbed
window is open..
Thats wrong. Why? pretty simple. Lets say a user is clicking on a
"slashdotted" web site - since the site is slashdotted - he won't see any new
tab until something is received or a time-out occures. Since the end user
doesn't know about that - he will keep clicking to open a new tab - and by
the time something will come up - he'll have tons of new tabs in Konqueror.
My suggestion - open a new tab first, and then get the data.
Speaking of tabbed browsing - there's still no keyboard shortcuts to switch
between the tabbed windows in Konqueror unfortunately, which means - a mouse
is a must here, and it's not comfortible at all..
Just my $.02
Thanks,
Hetz
