For those downloaded it, the "location bar" or commonly known as "adress bar" is an unimaginable monstrosity. Its extremely terribly implemented, utterly flawed, and completely fails to find the required webpages making FF3 a pain in the ass to use.

I type in "ne", and it sorts "slashdot-NEws for NErds", and "groklaw.NEt", and a few other things, BEFORE "NEws.google.com".

If I WANTED slashdot, I would have typed "sl". If I WANTED groklaw, I would have typed "gr".

Do the people who design these things even type at all when they use the browser, or do just they think they are helping out old people who don't know how to use a mouse with fancy icons?????

If you're going to the wrong pages that's YOUR fault, not the browser's

Are you the sort of user that plans to visit Gamespot and then wonders why you're seeing the page for EB games?

Your only gripe is with the address bar because it's big and can't find any address you type? :lol:-Sluggo-

You obviosuly need some time with the instructions

It's a simple interface that sifts the information into what's in your bookmarks, what's popular, and where you've been before

It doesn't send you to the wrong place unless you screw up and it doesn't stop you from going where you typed.

Next time read over the literature before you move to an upgrade that you're not ready to use

so i type www.google.com and it gives me an entire list of search pages i've ever done in the last couple of months, somewhere in that pile of useless addresses is the actual "www.google.com"

it should have given me "www.google.com" as the first result!

A Google search of "ne" results in 1,840,000,000 results. I'm surprised it gave you such related results.

Dude, i'm NOT talking about the search engine. i'm talking about typing in the address bar! i only took google.com as an example search.

NOw how is anything supposed to know that you want Google News over News for Nerds? It only sees the word "News" and ranks it accordingly. I think it adjusts the results over time, like if you visit Google News more, it will eventually rise to the top.tcardone05

It did know that in FF 1, 2. IE and Opera know that too.

Well if you are talking about the address bar. Why don't you type in the full address and hit enter. Mozilla doesn't know what you are thinking you know. :)

What in gods name is it that you want then? If you want accurate searches then use a search engine. If you want to type in an address use the address bar.
