Does the online wallet works exactly the same in terms of functions like the full client? I find it more easy to work with online wallet because full client always crushes on Ubuntu Linux.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              Thank you

Not so sure if it is very safe though.. I for once had a web wallet at some point, created a couple of accounts, had some small amounts in there and then something happened and was never able to recover my wallet and funds even if I still have my passphrase and recover key. I wouldn't put too much in there if I were you.
