After several delays and a lot of anticipation, Mozilla on Tuesday released Firefox 3.5, officially joining the next-generation of browser wars where heavy focus has been put on JavaScript performance. But is the new browser ready for prime-time? Due to the number of complaints users have been posting -- ranging from longer load times to intermittent crashes believed to be a result of the TraceMonkey JavaScript engine -- Mozilla has issued a community "BugDay" set ...

A few days after blocking PlayStation 3 users, Hulu has yet to respond to questions concerning the change which has only helped to fuel rumors it is related to the Microsoft ad campaign currently featured on the site, but that seems less likely now that we've confirmed it also began blocking the Flash-enabled Skyfire browser on Windows Mobile devices at the same time. Whatever the cause is, if you prefer a homegrown hack over something ...

CNETNate writes "The tests prove it: It's the third-fastest browser in the world, and over twice as fast as Firefox 3. In terms of Javascript performance, Firefox 3.5's new rendering engine places it squarely above Opera 10's beta and Internet Explorers 7 and 8 (based on previous benchmarks), plus it's getting on for being almost as quick as the original version of Google Chrome. Also, the new location-awareness feature was testing in central London, and ...

In the first 24 hours since its release yesterday, Firefox 3.5 has been downloaded more than 5 million times. (It took only a few hours to pass a million). That is certainly respectable, but doesn’t quite measure up to the mania that Firefox 3.0 set off last summer, when it achieved a “world record” 8.3 million downloads in a single day. Maybe we’ll have to wait for Firefox 4.0 to beat that record. But Firefox ...

互联网上不都是好人。有的成年网民足够坚强,看到很黄很暴力的东西可以承受,而很多孩子则需要援助之手才能从心理上应对这些东西。 网络导师(CyberMentors)版火狐浏览器是Mozilla基金和著名的反网络暴力组织Cybermentors.org.uk联合推出的一款浏览器,是父母的绝佳选择。 有了这个浏览器,只需轻轻一点,用户就可以和成年救助人员或其他关心网络暴力的孩子即时聊天,其中有些人已经经过该组织的导师培训,可以通过私人聊天提供个人建议。该网站十分活跃,笔者曾和一个13岁的导师聊天。这个小姑娘很健谈,她说她不仅提供应对网络暴力的建议,还为应对线下暴力提供建议。 除了可以和受过培训的网络导师聊天外,孩子还可以在浏览器媒体侧边栏里查看有关反对网络暴力的最新视频。 已经安装火狐浏览器的用户可以通过这个插件实现一模一样的功能。 (译言网:pestwave)

Almost exactly a year after the last release, the latest version of Firefox, the world’s second most used browser, arrived today in over 70 languages, and it’s already spreading like wildfire to users around the globe. Firefox 3.5 has some notable improvements over its predecessor, though many of them, such as support for native JSON and web worker threads, are geared toward developers. Still Firefox 3.5 is well worth the upgrade for the many improvements ...

Written by Simon Mackie. Mozilla has just released the final version of Firefox 3.5. As I noted in my review of the release candidate, JavaScript performance — critical for many web apps — is massively improved thanks to the new TraceMonkey engine, making 3.5 feel very fast indeed. I tried running the final release through the Sunspider performance benchmarks, and it doesn’t look like there are any major differences between it and the release candidate. ...

After some rather impressive RC builds, Firefox 3.5 is all packaged up and ready for public consumption. Mozilla is saying its new browser is more than two times faster than Firefox 3, but what has us more excited is the support for plugin-free "open codec" video and audio playback using Ogg Vorbis and Ogg Theora-- it's still in its infancy, but the subtle glimpse we've seen so far of a world without Flash video reducing ...

Version 3.5, codename “Shiretoko”, does bring a lot of new neat features to the browsing platform. My personal favorite feature I have seen thus far, that shows the most innovation is the support for embeddable video, without the use of any plugins or third party scripts.

Newly added treats include updated themes and a tweaked UI, improved add-on support and numerous bug fixes. We gave the alpha a quick spin and ...
