Is it possible to implement smooth scrolling into Phoenix? I know some people may not want it, but it should atleast be an option.
I find I have to scroll more in Phoenix/Mozilla than in IE!
Thanks for an awesome program! (I just started using it yesterday)

There is a smoothscroll thingy coming in the Gecko engine enventually.
When it's ready Phoenix will get it too.

You are kidding are you not?
It takes considerably LONGER to scroll with "smooth" then "imediate" scroll.
Instead of imediateöy moving to the scrolled area, your actual scrolling is delayed to make it smoother.

I meant that for every revolution of the scroll wheel, the page is scrolled more in IE than in Mozilla/Phoenix.
I just tested it out.
In IE, it will will scroll almost double that of Mozilla/Phoenix per "movement" of the scroll wheel. So, if I want to scroll down in Phoenix, I gotta keep on scrolling and scrolling to get to the bottom. I know I could change this in my mouse settings, but then it would affect my other programs too!

You can adjust that easily in Preferences
Advanced: Mouse Wheel

You are NOT talking about "smooth scrolling" but how much each move on the scroll moves the screen.
That is something compleatly else, that is in no way related.
In Mozilla you will find that setting where cappuchino sais, but at least in my version of Phoenix (Gecko/20021125) it's not avialble yet in the UI.
That means you have to add it manually to your registry for now.

You can change this in Phoenix without affecting other programs. Just add the following lines to user.js:
user_pref("mousewheel.withnokey.sysnumlines", false);
user_pref("mousewheel.withnokey.numlines", 12);
Play with the 12 above to find out what you like.
