iCab 3.0.5 (01/2008)
New since iCab 3.0.3
- New feature in the "File" menu: "Session > Create Session Archive". When enabling this
feature (the menu item will be checked) for a certain window or Tab, iCab will
create a web archive and save all webpages into this archive which are opened
in this window or tab (either directly by entering the URls or by clicking
on links). iCab will save and add everything in the web archive until you
switch off the feature again (uncheck the menu item, or when closing the Tab
or window). As a remeinder that the "recording" is switched on, the document
of this windows or tab will have a red border.
- In the "Forms Manager" there's a new setting in the section "Special Websites"
which allows to automatically fill out all forms (which were saved before)
when the page has finished loading, so it's no longer necessary to use the
"Fill out Form" menu item manually.
- When searching within a browser window for text, the found text will be now marked
with a large transparent bar for a short time so it can be more easily located
inside the window. Also the found text will be scrolled slightly more into the
center of the window than before to get a better overview about the surrounding
content.
- When visiting encrypted web pages you can now click on the "key" icon in the status
bar to get some information about the security certifications which are used.
- In the Tools menu there's now a siple certificates manager where all build-in
certificates are listed and where you can disable/enable these certificates as
well as importing new certificates
- The Universal Binary version of iCab (and only this Version) is now using Growl
http://growl.info/ to notify the user about finished downloads and to notify the
user that iCab needs some attention when it is in the background and so the user
may not see that iCab waits for a certain confirmation (accept a cookie, JavaScript
code opened an alert box etc.).
- Added a new option in the "URL autocomplete" settings of the preferences dialog.
It is now possible to configure iCab to either automatically select the first
suggestion of the autocomplete list which opens just below the location field
(which also was the standard behaviour before) or to select nothing automatically,
so the user has to explicitly use the arrow-up/down keys to select one of the
autocomplete suggestions (the latter is the standard behaviour of Firefox).
