RC3 is Firefox 1.5

If you're using Firefox 1.5 Release Candidate 3, congratulations: you have Firefox 1.5. The English (US) version of Firefox 1.5 is just Firefox 1.5 Release Candidate 3 with a renamed installer. Thanks for helping to test the release candidate. You can verify that you have Firefox 1.5 Release Candidate 3 (rather than an older release candidate) by selecting "About Mozilla Firefox" from the "Help" menu; you should see something ending with "Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5".

Update: changed links to point to 2005-10-25-19 instead of 2005-10-26-0x, because 2005-10-25-19 are the candidates for RC1. The two sets of builds should be the similar because there were only Camino-only checkins between them.

Firefox 1.5 Beta 2 released

Firefox 1.5 Beta 2 has been released. If you downloaded the Windows build from the last post, or the Mac or Linux build from two posts ago, you already have it.

2005-10-06 Branch builds

These builds are release candidates for Firefox 1.5 Beta 2. Marcia Knous has posted a list of areas that are most likely to have regressions.

Fixes for regressions:

  • Fixed: 311269 - Crash on my.yahoo.com and other sites when logging in.
  • Fixed: 311266 - Fix for bug 306961 was too aggressive, causes partial update to keep failing in some cases where a full update should be downloaded.
  • Fixed: 311295 - select.options[0] doesn't become undefined when last option is removed. (This bug caused Litmus to hang and caused a problem with drag-and-drop rearranging of tabs.)
