RE: browseable vs browsable

["Pinkham, Jim" <Jim -dot- Pinkham -at- voith -dot- com>]

And here's the take from OneLook:
(http://www.onelook.com/?w=browseable&ls=a)

Word or phrase:  "browseable" 

 Find definitions    Find translations    Search all dictionaries
Sorry, no dictionaries indexed in the selected category contain the word
browseable.

Perhaps you meant:
browsable  (found in 2 dictionaries) [InfoPlease and Dictionary.com]
bestowable  (found in 1 dictionary)


If not, you might try using the wildcards * and ? to find the word
you're looking for. For example, use
brow*  to search for words beginning with brow, or
*able  to search for words ending with able

I'd say "browsable" by analogy with "usable" and other verbs ending on
-e.

Browsable is also an entry in the Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary (
http://www.m-w.com/); browseable is not.
