Anybody using Camino?

[sabre364]

I've been using it as an alternative to firefox...which hangs too much for my liking.

But I have 2 problems with it.

When I am using a mouse the center scroll wheel click will not close a tab (provided i'm clicking on the tab) nor will it open up my homepage in a new tab (when i center click on the home page button).

Any ideas if this is possible to do?

Firefox hangs for you? What Mac do you have?

I use Camino as my second browser, but Safari is still my first love.

I completely forgot about Camino.

MBP, 2.4ghz, 4gb

its not so much it hangs, its more that its much slower when i enter stuff into forms and things like that than safari or camino. i dont even have many extensions/add ons, mainly just ffvb, unlinker, and foxy tunes

Yeah, I feel like I haven't heard too many peeps about Camino anytime recently...

Anyway... discussion of why it isn't in Camino and presumably FireTabs may still work to fix it.

Thanks for the informative tip, mkrishnan.

I, for one, use Camino regularly at home (I also use Safari, and DON'T like Firefox's UI at all, hence Camino as my alt), so stuff like this is always nice to know.

I have never tried camino but I have been using a browser called stainless for about the past month (switch from firefox). It is still in beta but it has some great features coming and a very simplistic interface. I use it mainly because of its amazing speed compared to firefox and safari. It is also very very lightweight. It has never used above 100MB of memory. Also, it gets a 100/100 on the Acid3 test which is pretty impressive for a browser that is still in beta. I would suggest trying it and see what you think. The devs at mesadynamics are working toward a 1.0 release which is very exciting.
