There are SO MANY THINGS wrong with searching from the address bar.
It really is a disaster of a UI concept. There is no search history, you can't switch search engines in the middle of a search, once you go to a web page your search term is wiped out and you need to type it in again if you want to change the spelling or add terms...
I can forsee IE10 putting it (the dedicated search window) back touting a great improvement to searching as a "new" feature now that we have hit rock bottom of functionality in that area in all browsers :/
Hi there
Sometimes and it's only very rarely a website doesn't render well with one browser but works with another -this is often due to problems with the site rather than the browser per se.
I agree 99% of the time it doesn't seem to make any sense in using more than one browser --except during testing phases to see which one you like or you want the tiniest one you can find for s "stripped down" version of R7 --Opera is good for this purpose.
BTW not sure what you mean --IE10 has both a drop down for the address bar and a search engine bar where you can type your questions --so unless I've mis-understood something --
Note I'm using IE10 in the "non invasive" i.e in the classical nom metro_UI mode.

Ok.. so they ARE putting it back in 10! hahahaha.... (Idiots for taking it out of 9 just to follow the pack! Grrrr.)
Well, personally I love the combo address/search bar. Those Drop down boxes annoy me to no end on ANY browser too. First thing I turn off. I use IE 9 but only when I have to as my Browser of choice is Opera, closely followed by Chrome. I do have both installed and use Chrome because the game I play on facebook seems to like it a tad better than Opera. The only time I fire up IE9 is when I go to my V.A. Health site as it will only accept either it or F.F. (its a real pain in the behind to fill out a whole page of questions ,hit enter and be told that "it appears you have an unsupported browser". So far though that and one other site I frequent are the only ones I have any trouble with at all. Been using Opera for years now and Chrome since I started the fb game a couple of months ago.
But since this thread/topic is IE9 I must say that , to me, its the top of the heap as far as Microsoft browsers are concerned. But at the end of the day, your browser of choice is just that,CHOICE. Whatever you want/need/feel comfortable with is the browser for you.
I have IE 9 but, I use Chrome most of the time. Do U guys think ie is better ?
Really, you can use whatever you like best. My opinion is I love IE9, but others love firefox, still others love chrome, and so on...
different ones have different features, security, speed, etc. Google to find out more, or ask questions here on this forum
I like ie9 too but got used with Chrome. My wife uses only IE8.
