Browser Use

OW is my prime browser. I rarely leave it to use another browser.

Sometimes I go to Firefox to use Stumble Upon, which only seems to be 
there. Beyond that, I avoid FF as much as I  can -- it's not very 
Mac-friendly. Ducks Services, doesn't support Contextual Menus, has 
strange ideas about where to put downloaded files -- if it's willing 
to download at all.

There are a few sites that I use frequently that don't get along well 
with OW; I can switch to Opera or Camino and get what I want from 
those few sites.  But it's a pain. Is the site difficult because it's 
coded non-standard? Or should I look forward to OW 6?

Probably some of both. Some sites don't get designed with WebKit based  
browsers in mind or just poorly but WebKit also isn't perfect. In  
development versions of WebKit are working to improve things so  
OmniWeb 6 as well as Safari 4 should see improvements in the site  
compatibility side of things.
