    v7 of Netscape does not seem to offer these features?

    1) no "Load Images" option (I browse w/ images turned off as my 56k
    modem
    often only connects at 31k)
    2) no Forward <> Back keystroke (command + [ )
    3) command + C does not work, must use pull down edit menu and select
    'copy'
    4) can not enter URL in navigation bar
    ------------

    As per previous response to my post, yes I want to surf with images
    turned off and load all images on a page when I get to one the either
    requires it (no alt tags) or entices me to do so.

    Thanks

    This is a major oversight by Netscape. I wonder if the function isn't
    disguised or hidden.

    The forward / back functions now use the more sensible CMD-arrow keys.

    It works on my 7.02. Does your edit menu even show the CMD-key
    equivalents?

    It works here. There is no default scheme, as in the past. You must
    enter "http://....."

    What is the complete version info for your Netscape?

    Ok must have been a computer glitch on #2-4. I re-installed v7 and those
    now work. No open program icon in top right menu though as before.

    I tried Opera v6 and same thing, no top right icon. Opera 6 crashed too
    much so I went back to v5. Problem with 5 is no way to specify where the
    cache folder is but that is for another thread.

    So other than the missing 'load - images' feature, the large amount of
    disc space and runs to slow on pre G3 machines, Netscape v7 seems fine.
    With MSIE stopping at v5 for Macs, and Safari only for OSX I guess
    Netscape 7 is the answer.
