Guest John Fisher Posted August 6, 2007 Posted August 6, 2007 Re: Address Bar and web pages I have the same issue, and also had the Auto-Complete checked for Web Addesses. I tried the CTRL Enter and that does seem to work, so thanks for that tip. In prior versions of IE, and even sometimes in this version of IE, I didn't have to hit CTRL Enter, it just put it in for me automatcally, which was great. By the way, it is very annoying, to have a nice feature taken out of the product. Thanks for your help, "Imanuker" wrote: > Malvern: Thanks for answering.
