there is another thread here now that has some good discussion about firefox, at the bottom of that thread I have posted a link to tutorials on firefox. Firefox does the same thing your Internet Explorer does but is much more customizable and is safer, you will not get rid of IE you will just add firefox so you have a choice between the two, both can be run at the same time. here is the link to that thread Here is a link that might be useful: thread

mago this is what it says about dom inspector on the firefox site: DOM Inspector is a tool that can be used to inspect and edit the live DOM of any web document or XUL application. The DOM hierarchy can be navigated using a two-paned window that allows for a variety of different views on the document and all nodes within. Note: This add-on depends on binary changes to Firefox, and will not work with Firefox 2. I do not have it, never used it, so can not comment on it, if you do not use it then you can easily remove it. In fact I see you have ff 2 and it says that dom inspector does not work with ff 2??? There is a post some pages back that I had started called tips and tricks that thread has a lot of good info on ff ad ons and other useful stuff.

Jasdip, on Chrome you can do that. Click the "wrench" options button, then under Basics, On startup, select Reopen the pages that were open last. Opera allows this too. I can't understand why more people don't just use Opera. They're really missing out. I just updated to v4 of Firefox. Looks to me like they're trying to make it Internet Explorer Jr. Firefox's biggest problem is you need to add about 20 extensions to make it a practical browser and give it some basic features that are standard on other browsers. However there are a few cool extensions, or "add-ons" as they want to call them now but Chrome is rapidly getting them. I can't believe it's taken them this long for Firefox to finally make paste-and-go a part of the browser. Talk about behind the times. (Sigh) There is a control for the tabs so the last ones open will open upon restart. Session Manager allows you to do this. It took a while to go through all the add-ons to find which one. And with v4, many of the add-ons aren't compatible so it'll take a while to catch up. Another of Firefox's shortcomings. But for certain things it's an acceptable browser. But for use, Chrome has overtaken it for my use. And now the Firefox lovers are going to jump all over this! LOL

Thank you for getting me thinking about the oven door- I hadn't really even thought of it. I think I will be OK there is 48" from the island to the sink perimeter. Is there an optimal distance between oven and cabinet? I tested it out just now and although no one will be able to walk behind me when I am taking the turkey out of the oven it is plenty of clearance for me to bend over and take something out. I do see an issue with the dishwasher essentially being across from the oven door, but we just won't be able to be loading dishes while taking out a pizza- not a huge deal. thanks for getting me thinking!
