17 out of 17 here :) only took about half an hour of bumping :) :p its nice to have my extensions back :D

[autodefe]

Is anyone else getting this error after installing? I've even cleaned out everything and rebooted... :(

EDIT: Problem fixed; had to delete "pluginreg.dat" from my profiles folder!

[HoochieMamma]

Great, all my extensions work now because of links here. (Y)

[amrinders87]

Thanks. Downloading it now.

[redfish]

the drag and drop tabs look like they were adapted from an extension i once downloaded

[jimbo11883]

Works nicely... although most of my extensions are disabled, I really don't need them right now.

[TheWahbinator]

And they finally they don't delay their release dates...

Downloading now.

And what's the purpose of starting the 1.6a1 trunk so fast? I mean, the next version (2.0) is coming out in like March or something

[shockz]

Argh... the heading on these pages look like crap with this beta... and the alphas did the same thing.

they want to compete with IE7 Final, Firefox 2.0 vs IE7 Final

for now, Firefox 1.5 vs IE7 Beta2

[Wiser87]

Hmm... does anyone know if there's a .zip version that can just be extracted and run in a folder? I don't really want to have to "install" it just yet...

[joeydoo]

if any of your extensions or themes not working with this beta try out this extension

http://users.blueprintit.co.uk/~dave/web/f...id/nightly.html

when u got it installed, right click on ur extension or theme and click make compatabile (spelling?) Ive done it to Tabbrowsing Preferences and AquaFox theme!

Thanks, that is most helpful. If I unistall it after enabling the extensions will it stop them working again?

Trunk isn't started, it's always there. Branch is the one that 'starts'.

AdBlock doesn't work correctly!

:cry:

later edit: I found a fixed version of AdBlock for Firefox 1.5 Beta1 :)

here is the link http://aasted.org/adblock/viewtopic.php?t=2264

Oh!! thanx for the link, work fine with FF 1.5b1 :yes:

[blush]

Thanks for the heads-up and the helpful links, everyone.

Has anyone taken the acid test? If so, is it possible to post a screenshot? I am at work and can't exactly install this beta

one of the features of this beat is improved support for standards: http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/re...s/1.5beta1.html

[mAcOdIn Veteran]

The Acid2 test?

It fails.

[HoochieMamma]

No, thats what I did, I installed that extension. Then installed my other ones that didn't work and got rid of the developers tools one.

[The_Decryptor Veteran]

they wont be passing the Acid2 until 2.0 or later

i cant wait until 1.5 final. :yes:

i also cant wait until a zip version of Beta 1.

[Ferret]

I use "Mouse Gestures", and that doesn't work on this version !

Page rendering is far more impressive now :)

The Acid2 test in FF1.5 doesn't quite render properly, but check out what happened in IE7:

[Malisk]

LOL, OMG :D

[bush]

updated to "1.4" today :)

You'll have to use a nightly build that's equivlant to the 1.4 release; they're not making zips for releases anymore.

http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/fir...-07-mozilla1.8/

2005090807 should be cloce to the 1.4 release.

^have you tried draging your tabs around? ;)
