mozilla and slashdot.. strange anomaly

exodist · 11-02-2003, 01:29 PM

on all 5 of the comps I have mozilla on, 4 slackware, 1 windows (at work not home) using both mozilla 1.4 and 1.5.

I go to slashdot all the time (I am an addict), but unlike most sites it does nto remain in my location bar, I can type www.ker and then it fills the rest in to kernel.org. however slashdot will not, on any computer, it will never remember that I had been there. however it saves my user/password for the site.. what is going on?

If you've been typing www.slashdot.org and expecting it to fill in after a few letters.. I congratulate you and award you the stupid question of the year award. As the web site address is slashdot.org with no www.

i know that now, I never realised it was a site with no www. but it is one of those things that can easily go unnoticed.

on my machine
www.slashdot.org
resolves to slashdot.org

maybe he had been doing that way all along.
