MS IE7 To Have Tabbed Browsing
Posted: 17th May, 2005 By: MarkJ
Microsoft's next version of Internet Explorer (v7), which is due to be released as a public beta soon, will have tabbed browsing. The following is taken from a Microsoft blog on its development:
The main goal for tabs in our beta release is to make sure our implementation delivers on compatibility and security. The variety of IE configurations and add-ins across the Internet is tremendous. We want feedback on how it works with add-ins that you run (or have written), with the sites that you visit, and with the line of business applications, accessibility tools, management and development tools that you run. Weve also looked closely at reported vulnerabilities in other implementations of tabbed browsing. Were looking forward to feedback from the security community as well.
The tabbed browsing experience in the upcoming IE7 beta is pretty basic. Expect additional end-user functionality to come in after the beta.
There had been a lot of rumours about whether or not it would appear, with one MS employee having stated otherwise, although thankfully its finally been confirmed.
Mind you, well be sticking with Firefox unless they make IE7s rendering faster.
