You might be thinking about Opera, it had tabbed browsing long before FireFox existed, but it isn't (and wasn't) Netscape/Gecko based.

You can only expect other software to include features available in competitiors, that's what a competitive market is.


Netscape was the first browser with tabbed browsing support. It wasn't Opera.

Not true...

From Wikipedia

Web browsers are notable for implementing this kind of interface (called tabbed browsing). BookLink Technologies pioneered this interface design in its InternetWorks browser in 1994, an approach followed by the Internet Explorer shell NetCaptor in 1997. It was followed by Opera 4 in 2000, although Opera has always had a full MDI interface. These pioneers were followed by a number of others like Mozilla in 2001 (through the MultiZilla extension in April of 2001 and a built-in tabbed browsing mode added to Mozilla 0.9.5 in October of 2001) and Safari in 2003. As of March 2005, most current graphical web browsers, with the notable exception of Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 (it has been stated IE 7 will support it), natively support a TDI.

O.P. RE: Internet Explorer 7: First Impressions?
Who cares, thats the third party software vendors problems.  Look closer and you can see its because of the third party vendors' crappy programming skills.  I've said it once and ill say it again, Trillian is the worst software ever.  Anyway...IE7 simply has an updated DLL that these programmers didnt anticipate.

Internet Explorer seems to have problems with MSN Music.

If I navigate to it normally, IE7 crashes. I've tested with the worldwide MSN Music site (music.msn.com) and also the Australian version, incorporated with ninemsn (music.ninemsn.com.au)

If I click someone's "What I'm Listening To" song in MSN Messenger, which should launch an MSN Messenger window displaying a special page at MSN Music (powered by Internet Explorer), with search fields filled in for the song that you clicked. Now it sends me to a page telling me that I need Internet Explorer version 6.0 or above to access MSN Music.
