Thanks. I think "side pane" is the best name for this component. It is usually better to name a component by its function rather than its location. It seems the function of this component has a lot to do with navigation, so you might also want to consider "navigation pane". However, more functionality may be added to the pane which is not related to navigation. On the whole, I would recommend "side pane" for Galeon. If you're interested, here is where the discussion about the naming of this component in Nautilus took place: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=66648 "Jonathan Sambrook" <[email protected]> wrote: >Date: Wed, 13 Nov 2002 17:39:08 +0000 >At 15:01 on Wed 13/11/02, [email protected] masquerading as 'Eugene O' >Connor' wrote: >> Can you provide a link to a screenshot of the side pane?
