I have been using firefox for a few months ... It has worked more or less fine except - the offline browsing doesn't seem to work . Even though I have set the cache size to a comfortable 60mb and time to keep history as 25 days - I'm simply unable to view anything offline . -- Is this a bug or some config problem ?? Any suggestions on how it can be solved ??
( I use win 98se )

U cant view all the pages offline
Some pages wont be available to offline
This problem persists in all browsers

Example: some authorized pages like inbox of a mail site.

IE is better in handling this.
In Opera, the pages wont be available in history unless the page is completely loaded. Half loaded pages wont be available offline.

I think u cant do anything with this.

The problem is not with just some pages but I am unable to view practically any of them , even if they are unauthorizd. ( which work fine in IE , Heck , in IE I'm even able to see inbox messages !!! )

I'm trying opera now but it comes with its own set of annoyances :cry:

I guess I'll have to shift back to IE . That's certainly one up for Microsoft ...
