Mozilla Firefox 0.8
No that is not a typo ....
Mozilla Firebird is now officially Mozilla Firefox as of the new 0.8 release. At the moment it is only available as a installer version on windows as Ben Goodger said the .zip version won't be until later in the week in ftp directory, won't be listed on mozilla.org though. Window installer version: (ftp.mozilla.org may be busy) ftp://ftpmoz.newaol.com/pub/firefox/...xSetup-0.8.exe http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/ http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/releases/ If you are updating from the 0.7 release to 0.8 then don't be surprised if you have to start a new profile as themes have been changed a few times since 0.7 and extensions changed too. ![]() It is so busy at mozillazine forums that I can't get on to see the chaos. *mutters* |

Re: Mozilla Firefox 0.8
Ummm. this is pretty cool, but I have a few questions...
1. Is it just me, or is the scroll bar gone?? 2. Ok, I downloaded this and booted it up. At first it was using a new theme, none of my old Firebird bookmarks were there, or my search engines, etc, etc. So I leave for a while and come back. Now, Firefox has my old theme, and everything. while this makes me happy, its a little wierd. 3. Um, what can this baby do? why is it better than firebird? [edit] WTH!? I just realized my back and forward buttons are gone................grrrrrr I would also like to add that by gong to view>customize, I still have no back or forward buttons. |
Re: Mozilla Firefox 0.8
Good idea time: Wait to update to a new version of a program. Give it a few weeks then upgrade. I know it seems hard, but it gives them some time to fix bugs. For now Firebird and I are friends.

Re: Mozilla Firefox 0.8
I like it. Maybe I can sloowly migrate from netscape to firefox.

Re: Mozilla Firefox 0.8
This is just the new release of Firebird. Firebird has now evolved into Firefox. All of the old code is there.
I guess, I've had no problems so far. Vampyr, you should look at the view tab, and then toolbars, and make sure both of the options are checked. |

I take it you upgrade from Firebird 0.7 to Firefox 0.8 right as the themes have been changed a few times (widgets to bindings etc long story) and so you need a updated version of theme sorry. Try selecting default theme and then restart maybe? If you went from release to release then: Quote:
By the way the new Mozilla Thunderbird 0.5 email client is out also. |
Re: Mozilla Firefox 0.8
have to see if its better then my Opera. opera's by far been the best browser thus far.
one of the main reasons i never used Mozilla was cuz i couldnt stand clicking on the ugliest looking icon (dinosaur head or whatever) on my computer so i deleted it. But is that thier new logo? i dig that crazy fox/world logo. looks nice. :) |
Re: Mozilla Firefox 0.8
I wonder what animal the next upgrade will be? Perhaps firecat?

Re: Mozilla Firefox 0.8
nice program, clean, works smooth, simple.
doesnt have a lot of the options i like on Opera tho, and some i like a bit more but... Why cant i get my tabbed section at bottom? they dont even give me the choice on this? :( *quickly opens up his opera, "ahhhhhh better"* |

Put this code in your userChrome.css (texturizer.net/firefox/ is busy) Code:
/* Display the Tabbar at the bottom */ If you want I could post the code for to have tab bar on the left side. tabs will still be horizontal though. Quote:
Anything else? :D |

yea i found a lot of that and the exention stuff. its a nice program still. worthy of being a nice backup. still on the buggy side from what i've seen. but its new, so is to be expected. Maybe down the road when this becomes more stable, and gets all the options and stuff right it can replace Opera. but for now. its going to be a nice backup program for me, and one to keep an eye on. :) |
Re: Mozilla Firefox 0.8
Thanks for your help Seven7, plus rep. I switched back to the default theme, and my scroll bar and my back and forward buttons returned. Its working perfectly now. And Im in the process of transfering my profile settings and stuff.
*searches for a new red theme* |
Re: Mozilla Firefox 0.8
Heh Null... I find Opera to be quite crashy for me as to probaly why they give you the option to resume last session. There is a "session saver" extension that does this quite well for Firefox come to think.
Vampyr , any themes in particular are you looking for as I might be able to find a version of it that should work in Firefox 0.8. |
