HTML 3.0 Support
WebExplorer now supports selected HTML 3.0 extensions. It will format tables, use specified background and text colors, including colors for default text, default links, and visited links. It will also align images and flow text around them.
Enhanced Newsgroup Functions
With the URL newsrc:, you can access the Newsgroup Manager. This new feature allows you to list the newsgroups provided by your news server and subscribe to your favorite groups. The Newsgroup Manager monitors your subscriptions and reports the number of unread articles since your last session or update. You can add or delete subscriptions at any time.
You are able to access a newsgroup by either selecting it from your list of subscriptions or by going directly to it using the news: protocol followed by the URL. You can load and browse the news articles a portion at a time or all at once. The new Next Thread and Previous Thread navigation functions allow you to read through the various postings and follow a conversation thread more easily. Any recognized protocols within the text are displayed as links so you can go directly to them.
You can now send a response to a specific article in a newsgroup, as well as post your own articles.
