Just tried, it works for me
How did you get it to work?. I can get it to work if I click on "clear private data" each and everytime I type something into the searchbar but other than that nothing. Apparently i'm not alone either as after doing some searching, there's a number of people who dont like having a "dropdown box" each time you type in a URL but I cant find anything to disable it permantly like you can in IE. I'll keep on trying I guess, otherwise it's back to IE <_<
I think forms & search bar is different from the URL bar. To disable autocomplete in the URL, I think (I haven't tried) you need to set the history setting to 0 day, not the setting sjmike gave you.

I love the new live spell check feature that FF2.0 has...

When typing in web forms, any spelling mistake is underlined much like working Microsoft Word. Pretty useful feature :)

For some reason I thought I had downloaded FF 2.0 but I think with all my computer programs I ended up restoring my system to when I had FF1. I discovered today when trying to download the color tabs extension that I have FF 1, so installed FF 2.0 and I absolutely love the spell check thingy. I type and spell so badly, that I usually copy and past all my posts into word and then back into the forums, now I don't have to. Awesome feature!! If I didn't like FF for other reasons, I would use it for this function alone!!!! B)

yeah, what would make it great is if they had a auto fix for things, like if I type just it would auto fix it to just. I have that on trillian and its great, I'm a big typo person, can spell great, just type to fast for my fingers and trillian fixes my major known mix ups.
Bleed the day.
