The features of firefox 3 beta 1 version is really good.but the iconic representations shown when a file is downloaded is too difficult to understand… it increases learning time that would actually bore a user

Firefox is geting better day by day, but there should need some more improvement in font rendering so that they feel smooth in high resolution LCD displays.

Is version 3 near completion and which of the alphas is a safe bet for a intermediate geek? I’m mostly interested in getting the Gecko engine 1.9.0 max version on this machine. Is it available for separate download and would it work with 2.0.0.8? A program I am interested in checking out requires the new Gecko engine. (Wonders too if this would work with Thunderbird and K-meleon?)

[...] The Browser Wars: 2007Firefox now has 28% market share in Europe. Impressive I would say; but looks like US market share is still below 20%. Wow. I have to use IE still for one web service that has not standardized (honestly, that is a whole other story) and I can hardly function within that browser at this point. Just this last week I downloaded the Twitbin plug-in for Firefox, updated my skin, and got excited for Firefox 3. [...]

I’m sure a lot of these feature aren’t just for me. When they started Fx3, they planned some features to include. They didn’t plan many (to prevent bloat) but they did plan some. I think we should get most of these features. Otherwise, what’s the fun of a new release? Look at places. That was supposed to make Firefox revolutionize browsing, by bringing advanced search and management to bookmarks and history. Now the most we can hope for is some useless tagging feature?! If there were no features added, why bother using new releases. Last I checked, Fx1 uses the least recourses.

I know IE was very late in getting tabs. That’s why I switched to Fx in the first place. I never claimed IE was first to get tabs. What I did say is IE7 pioneered the tab restoration option dialog. I haven’t seen a browser other than IE7 (and Fx3a6 which just got it) to have this feature. I think IE7 brought made this mainstream, and so I give credit where credit is due. If you disagree, give me an example.

netster007x: you’re a moron. addons exist for a reason. just because YOU want a specific feature included in firefox doesnt mean everyone else has to suffer any form of bloatedness if they don’t want or need it. saying something like ie7 pioneered tab restoration shows how little you know seeing as microsoft were basically the LAST to jump onto tabbed browsing in general.

I think “Do not ask next time” should be replaced by the more intuitive “Do this every time”

Sounds to me like open source is working. Afterall, both keywords and Places already exist in the downstream Linux browser Epiphany. That’s right, I’ve been enjoying that stuff for months now!

But that’s the great thing about open source. Another group takes Mozilla and makes some improvements. If enough people like it, Mozilla brings those back into Firefox.

Viva la revolution!

I hope they’ll take some time to fix the stability issues with the current version of firefox.

After some of the latestest updates for 2.x firefox have become very unstable crashing daily(sometimes). Not just on my Laptop, old PC and new MacPro but also at colegues, friends and family who are running firefox.
There are also some bugs causing a “cannot click anything” state and for me it have just become too much.

Currently i find IE7 more stable than firefox and that is a sad fact.
I hope version 3 will bring back some of the Coolness that Firefox has to it but untill then i will stick with opera(win) and Safari(osx)

@belg4mit: IE7 is the first browser I saw to include this feature. What other browser got the feature before it? If another browser did beat IE7, IE7 still beat Fx in getting this.

@Jordan: You can get a Greasemonkey script for Firefox that makes your saved passwords into auto-logons for specified sites. It’s called AutoLoginJ and it should be at userscripts.org The site won’t load right now, though

@Bios: Hopefully future versions of Fx (or any software) are better than their predecessors. What I think should be looked at in an update is change. Is there a large positive difference between the new version and the old version. Honestly, from what I can tell so far from Fx3, I think the best update was Fx2.

CTRL + SHIFT + T

The above shortcut restores tabs in Mozilla Firefox that are accidentally closed!
