Seeing as there's the beta start (apparently) in June, are we not going to see Firefox looking like the concept images they posted a while ago? Seems like the design hasn't had much improvement as of late. Or will the aero be bringing this in?

Aero will not bring those features , they are separate

We might see all those UI updates in beta , till then keep checking planet.firefox.com and https://wiki.mozilla...irefox/Projects

Thanks, I hope we do get what they propose in their concept art for Firefox 4.

To me , some of the things are like impossible or time-consuming to land , so i doubt that they will bring everything for us in time

Anyways , there is always a 4.1 :p

Position of tabs look a bit wonky there.

Yeah, they're going to make the non-glass region be inset by a couple of pixels so that the border is hidden, meaning the tabs will be flush with the top of the webpage.

It's a very very early theme currently though (tabs and buttons are the only new things), so there's going to be issues (Like D2D + Glass = Bad)

Is that for real? That theme looks horrible.

Someone obviously doesn't understand the concept of 'pre-beta' :rofl:

But in all seriousness, the tabs need fixing, they have chopped corners rather than rounded ones, but it's too late, I've moved to Chrome. Sorry Firefox and thanks for all the years.

Still no glass+d2d?

Nope.

This build also has major issues with embedded flash videos. Go to youtube and they work fine, watch an embedded video in the forum and Flash dies.

Add-ons in a tab... one of the many things I absolutely hate in Chrome, I really hope Mozilla does not push forward with this implementation :(

Edit:

I like having my search/address bar combined, makes things a bit faster. They should at least make it a configurable option, as many casual users don't mess with about:config stuff

The good thing about having Downloads,add on in a tab is that you dont get pop ups as a new window and having popups makes the task bar cluttered.

I'll try it now but i have a few questions:

Is it using the Out of Process plugins?

Yes, while you're using a plugin, in task manager you'll find a process called "plugin-container.exe"

Will implement the electrolysis project(each tab each process)?

No, as far as i know.

And will implement the WebM project?

Not this version.

at http://nightly.mozilla.org/webm you can find a version with early webm support.

    • Apple reluctantly forces strict new age checks on Texas users starting today

      By zikalify · Posted

      Apple reluctantly forces strict new age checks on Texas users starting today by Paul Hill Apple will begin enforcing the Texas Age Assurance Law (SB 2420) following a recent court ruling that lifted an injunction on SB 2420. Starting June 4 (today), Apple will enforce strict age-verification and parental-consent rules for new Apple accounts created in Texas. This move will affect children under 18 who go to download apps or attempt to make in-app purchases. Apple previously expressed privacy concerns related to this law, but compliance is now mandatory for the company, nevertheless. Apple will use several APIs to follow the law. Principally, the Declared Age Range API will fetch the specific user age bracket (Under 13, 13-15, 16-17, or 18+) and a verification method. The Significant Change API (PermissionKit) will trigger a system dialog for parental consent if an app gets a major update or an age-rating shift. There is also a new property type in StoreKit that allows developers to automatically check when their app’s age rating has changed on a user’s device and then use the Significant Change API to request parental consent. Finally, App Store Server Notifications can be configured to tell developers when a parent revokes consent, blocking app launches. To ensure they are ready for these changes, developers must immediately use Apple’s sandbox testing environment to validate these APIs in their apps. For any developers out there finding this to be inconvenient, get used to it. Other regions, such as Utah, Louisiana, and Brazil, are looking at, or have implemented, similar rules.
