Opera 11 finally better than Firefox

I agree with Y!! though, Firefox has performance/memory issues (partly caused by Firebug). It's best to minimise your addons down to the essentials.
About the Opera inserting extra line breaks, I'm not an Opera user, but are both of you using different versions and/or operating systems?

I am on Windows Vista, so maybe ...
I realised that if I masked Opera as Firefox, the lines problem went away, but then all javascript stopped working.

I am maybe doomed.
Will try it on my Linux box later.

I like Firefox, but - like Windows - it needs to be restarted sometimes and told to take out the garbage.

Opera is best as a general-purpose browser, because it's fast and stable

Edit: In my opinion question in the poll needs to be reformulated: What browser do you use in development|surfing?

I was on your opinion, with its last release I was amazed by its debugging console. Nevertheless, Chrome has done quite a good work and is built-in, no extension required. Also, for PHP (even though we don't need it thanks to CWebLogRoute) they have an extension called ChromePHP.. quite good. They are catching up...
And you know? I couldnt get down the 500 MB memory use by Firefox, Chrome handles my strong debug not going further than 80 MB.

Agree, one of the main reasons why i switched to Chrome. If only they wouldn't shake up the displayed HTTP headers in their developer tools, Chrome would be perfect.

But I use Opera now as noted. By the way version 11 final is out. They did a good job fixing the beta bugs (at least the one I've noticed).

So I tweak around those default configurations, I did this:
browser.cache.memory.enable;false
network.http.use-cache;true ---- but on this disk

browser.cache.disk.enable;true -- by default anyway
if you have browser.cache.memory.enable to true then set the browser.cache.memory.capacity to any of the one specified on this page but -1
http://kb.mozillazin...memory.capacity
And guess what... chrome and firefox with five tabs open (see atached picture so you can trust me)
So... I think the problem of the misterios memory consumption is about to be clarified

I am also using Chrome, and I really like its simplicity and speed, maybe I will switch to it soon.
Opera, is ok for end users, but for web developers there are better choices(both Firefox and Chrome).

Opera has always been "bleeding edge" in browser technology. Many sites does not look right and it always work different then the rest.
I know there are many issue with FF but the extension that I use make me stick with FF for development, IE for enterprise, Chromium for quick start up, Opera for checking out stuff

It looks like Opera Dragonfly (which is integrated in Opera by default, press ctrl+shift+i) offers the same functionality as Firebug. Operas plugin FastestTube is also a bit nicer than Firefoxs DownloadHelper. The last often doesn't give the possiblity to download HD YouTube Videos, even though it exists.

Safari is the best (mostly due to Apple pushing Flash-replacing features into it).
Firefox - in terms of new HTML5 and CSS3 features - is down there, just above IE.
Chrome is between Opera and FF.
So I am going to develop after webkit based browsers (Safari) first, use Opera for it's developer features, then check if it works in Chrome, Firefox and IE.
I am guilty of using FF as my primary browser now, but that has to end.
