2005-09-06 Branch respin

New stuff:

  • Fixed: 306664 - Bump JS version to 1.6, for E4X + Array extra + Array/String generics.

Fixes:

  • Fixed: 306020 - Enable official branding and set version to "Firefox 1.5 Beta 1" for upcoming 1.8b4 milestone release.
  • Fixed: 306869 - Answers.com plugin needs to say "Answers.com" and not "Dictionary".
  • Fixed: 284713 - [Linux] Preferences are cut off in the default size preference window.

Fixes for regressions:

  • Fixed (?): 305032 - Edit commands not available to subsequent instances on startup.
  • Fixed: 307153 - Since 20050817: After closing a modal-dialog, focus isn't restored to the right element.
  • Fixed: 306076 - Edit menu in Compose window has many grayed out items the first time you use it after app start. (Fixes a mail bug, but the fix is in core focus code.)

    hm. extensions stopped working after last update (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.2; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050906 Firefox/1.4)
    i have changed extensions.lastAppVersion to 1.0+, but still no result

    workaround: i have manually created app.extensions.version with 1.0+ (as in the trunk instructions from here: http://www.squarefree.com/burningedge/2005/08/23/2005-08-23-trunk-builds/ ) then manually re-enabled extensions

    another workaround: http://users.blueprintit.co.uk/~dave/web/firefox/buildid/nightly.html
    get this extension. reenable the disabled extensions via mouseclick in the extension manager.

    costin, as your useragent says, Firefox’s version is now 1.4, not 1.0+.
