Title: Firefox 3 beta 3
Post by: neXus on February 14, 2008, 11:30:24 AM
With all the features now out there to view and test and not just the basic stuff before Read the run down of what it is here:

Good read and looks very promising if you ask me, the history and bookmarks elements and the lite sql all seem really good

Ive got the beta 2 on this lappy at the moment, just downloading the Beta 3 now.  Lets see if it is as quick.

yeah, they kept the page render really nippy, and I like the new icons.  They look nicer than the previous faded ones.  They also kept the really nice feature when you type into the address bar.  That was one thing i instantly liked from the Beta2.  AdBlock Plus works fine with it as well, which makes me happy.

lol not really. I much prefer seperate development tools :) I use browsers for browsing, textpad/scite for editing, and Ill install sql definitions in textpad if I need to do sql.

So the possibility of duplicate tabs and even such a great simple addition as multiple text selection doesnt interest you? Or the other gecko improvements that make it acid2 friendly?

IE wont be standards compliant until IE8, and it will still be falling behind.
