    Default Avoid SmartNavigation

    I've done some investigating about various problems with the SmartNavigation
    feature. It seems to me that the general consensus is to avoid
    SmartNavigation like the plague. It's really a shame that such a
    potentially handy feature has been rendered useless because of all of the
    bugs surrounding it.

    Has Microsoft acknowledged the existence of the many bugs with
    SmartNavigation? If so, have we any indication as to if and when these will
    be fixed?

    Thanks for any updates.

    Default Re: Avoid SmartNavigation

    I concur.
    This smartnavigation feature is just not ready for prime time. You should
    see what it does to OWC controls in the page. It's a plague for real.
