msg43 Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 I tried this and I had all kinds of problems. The most obvious was that my bookmarks were gone. I could see them if I "Managed" my bookmarks, but they weren't in the browser itself! :huh: I guess I'll wait until I see it on the official page. :cry: 584818559[/snapback] the ftp server is which is like ftp://mozilla/firefox/builds or whatever is the offical mozilla server that where the downloads on http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/ come from Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/236628-firefox-10rc1-out/page/3/#findComment-584818614 Share on other sites More sharing options...
curme Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 the ftp server is which is like ftp://mozilla/firefox/builds or whatever is the offical mozilla server that where the downloads on http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/ come from 584818614[/snapback] I'm sure that this has been asked before but, why isn't it on the official page? EDIT: Maybe, in order not to crash the server, they keep it with the nightlies, so the downloading is staggered?

Emon Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 They probably wont put it on main page. Cause RC1 is mostly a "testing" release. Quote by Asa. If you're interested in testing these candidates and reporting bugs to Bugzilla, you can get them from FTP. If you've already downloaded 1.0 PR (the "feature complete" preview) and you're not particularly interested in active testing and bug reporting, then you should probably stick with 1.0 PR for a couple more weeks and upgrade when we release the official Firefox 1.0.

The Jorge Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 Is it just me or does the 'My Assistant' popup break? It opens in the same tab I clicked the link in. The icons on the left of the Options window have changed. Another thing I noticed. The tabs no longer reach the bottom of the tab bar. There's a 2-3 pixel gap now. I liked it like it was before. Where the tabs' bottoms would touch the top of the page. All my extensions are working but 1 (MiniT - Drag+Indicator). Ah well, nice update, but I think I'm going back to my copy of Firefox from 9/30. Has the single window update in it. :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/236628-firefox-10rc1-out/page/3/#findComment-584819038 Share on other sites More sharing options...

grasshopper Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 (edited) Is it just me or does the 'My Assistant' popup break? It opens in the same tab I clicked the link in. 584819038[/snapback] make sure you don't have it checked in your preferences (advanced > tabbed browsing) to force links that open new windows to open in the same window/tab. Also, they changed the default from the earlier october builds, so when you check either of those options it will redirect all new windows into tabs. there is a hidden pref to change this behavior... browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction 0 = redirect all window.open() calls to tabs 1 = don't redirect window.open() calls 2 = redirect featureless window.open() calls set it to 2, and it will allow popups that have a window size or that hide UI elements to open in a new window. setting it to 1 will allow window.open() calls, but will still redirect target="_blank" into tabs if you have that pref set. if you don't set force inks that open new windows to open in (the same window/tab) or (a new tab), that hidden pref won't have any effect.
