    Your starting page in the browser... does only Internet Explorer call it so? I'm not sure.

    And yeah, SP is my starting page in IE. But not the site itself. The boards are. ;)

    Nope. Don't need to, I use Firefox, and it opens with the same pages I closed it with. :D

    @Chev

    Oh, in that case it is :p . My browser is in Danish, however, and it just call it a starting page - not homepage. Can't recall what Firefox calls it, though...

    Mine calls it just Home. I have a couple of browsers here because I need to check my work in all the major ones when I make websites. But I have terribly old versions and need to update them some time. ;) Might as well switch to a different browser. IE has everything and most people code for IE so pages look the right/intended way (if not always the proper way standard-wise), but it's been pissing me off for long enough.

    EDIT:
    Ooh, quad threes. :bigeyes: :roll:

    Firefox calls it a homepage. Mine's Google, not SP. I usually go to the forum page and check the main page once a week.

    @Undertaker:
    Whatnots maybe, but the RBP address changes with each new page (which changes every 8-12 hours lately), so that's just not workable. Besides, I'm all over, not just in the RBP History that I'm famous for. :p

    You know that it was a joke ;) But maybe The Queen of Spam changes her homepage once a new thread is opened :D

    I have about:blank as my home page :p

    However the Boards are among the first sites I check when I come online. I just open up the sites I frequent in tabs and wait for them to load. SP is one of these.

    [​IMG] Is not, and in Firefox, that's called Home Page (as shown in the pic)
    Also note that I have a direct link to the forums :D
