Great improvement

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Over One Year

Recommend Product: YES

Having used Camino as my main browser for quite a while, I am delighted that it now has spell checking, although, as a lousy typist, I wish the red line under the misspelled words were heavier and more noticeable. One more feature I would like to see is snapback, in Safari one can snap back to the page from which one started, without having to back-click and back-click to get to the original page.

I am still amazed at the number of sites that allow Safari, but won't play well with Camino (gmail for one, it works but many features are unavailable). Hopefully as more and more people use it, it will gain wider acceptance with web designers.

Great improvement - muon

If you want Camino to work with Gmail's full feature set, simply spoof Firefox as your user agent using CamiTools. Works like a charm. I've never had an issue with it.

What features are missing? Gmail has served identical code to Camino and Firefox for a year and a half now, no spoofing required. (Also, CamiTools is incompatible with Camino versions > 1.0.x, so you should discontinue use of it.)
