Google Adds' https Mode to Chrome 2.0
The final version of Chrome 2.0 should appear in a few weeks and includes a new edition of the Webkit rendering engine. Google has added in their latest pre-beta (2.0.156.1) a http-mode that would allow people to only view https websites. This method increases surfing security and is activated automatically when a https website is visited.
There are few new features in this release too, like the Auto complete option for forms, they also added the auto scroll option that allows you to scroll after clicking the middle button on your mouse. The most best option in other browsers have been added to and that is the zoom feature that allows you to zoom into the entire page instead of the old method of text increase or decrease.
A new feature is also the ability to dock a tab next to the browser or dock a tab at the bottom of another browser. Google is also experimenting with the Greasemonkey scripting and have included a new feature to open a browser via a different profile.
The V8-JavaScript engine has been updated to 0.4.6.0. Google has not yet disclosed the changes this update offers. Another change is the new Networking code that makes it easy to convert Google Chrome for Windows to a chrome for Linux or OS X for Mac.
The spelling control has been improved and can now be activated or de-activated in any field or form, and you can also change the language for a particular field or form.
