Stewart gave a speech about the 5K contest at Doors of Perception and my entry 'Hungry Little Frog' apparently got a little mention.




One neat thing about Mozilla's rendering engine is that it actually shows the content of <table>-tags as they are loading. This is especially noticable on the frequently giant Slashdot pages, which are not readable in both IE5.5 and NS4.7 until after the entire 160KB+ page has been downloaded. As designers keep using <table> for layout, this feature will prove most invaluable.

What Mozilla really does need though is a single-click action to open links in new windows. This is the main reason why I always go back to IE after a while; I miss my shift-click!
