I'm thinking of the dimensions/etc of the edit boxes and the like. I do a lot of work through virtual domains and it's a real pain having to resize that edit box every time I log in through a different domain or on a different computer...

Have you looked at the "Better User Management" proposal? One aspect of it is a better level of lowest-common-denominator support for extended attributes. I think that a prerequisite

On the other hand, Chris's specific proposal has some problems <grin>. Suppose I'm running Netscape in view and IE in another...I don't want the same size edit box in both...nor do I necessarily even if I just have more than one window of the same kind of browser open. This whole issue is a user preference thing, so you really ought to support a 'default' setting and a 'this screen' setting. (And while we're at it, those buttons ought to be some sort of image map or multi-button scale bar so you could just click to the size you want instead of having to click-wait-click-wait-click-wait....) Actually, I use w3m, so in reality I don't *care* what the size of the edit box is, so don't tell me that patches are accepted <grin>. --RDM
