New Firefox 2.0.0.11 update on its way
Published: November 28th, 2007
A bug in just released Firefox 2.0.0.10 affecting an important <canvas> HTML element interface (.drawImage) has prompted Mozilla developers to rush a new update that fixes this bug that affects several web sites and extensions (FoxSaver, Fotofox) that rely on it to deliver the intended experience to their users.
The bug has already been fixed and a first release candidate is now available.
If everything goes OK I think it could be out by Friday making it the first time we have two different Firefox versions in a week.

Wow! Gotta give credit to the developers for keeping on top of all this and getting these regressions fixed quickly.

I hope the canvas bug is what affects the above site. The pages are displayed correctly in IE 7.0, but in FF 2.0.0.10, the font is changed. This is consistent over many pages.
The pages displayed correctly in FF 2.0.0.09

I am into a loop of updates with my Firefox 2.0.0.11 version. I have windows XP SP2 and this update is in constant progress while i am running Firefox. Then it prompts for install and restart, but in the next restart Firefox is still in its previous version - 2.0.0.3 !
Is this a bug with my machine?
Thanks for any help.
