Mozilla Firefox 2.0 Final Released

Does anyone know if you can install FF 2.0 alongside FF 1.5? I want to keep both.

There might be a way around it, but by default it simply upgraded my 1.5 to 2.0. It kept all configuration and all saved data.

You can install them together if you use a different path and different profiles.

I think you can change the start parameters to change the profile.

[kevinmanphp]

Hey Scott... what are start parameters and any idea how I can change them?

I love the new spellchecker! What a nice feature.

[Vile]

The new spell checker is great. FF 2.0 is pretty darn nice, aside from the horrible new default theme, and the location of the "x" on the tabs.
I liked the old 1.5 location for the "x" so I modified the config and the profile css file to go back to the old layout, and used the old theme


Works perfect now.

Yes, it's a standard feature now in Fx2. It works with Google, Yahoo and Answers.com.

I like the restore session feature too

Good, then I am not going crazy.

does it work with roboform..?

does it work with roboform..?

If you download the api http://www.roboform.com/browsers.html#browser_mozilla

Now if I could find the autohide for bookmarks I would be happy..

[Scott MacVicar]

-P just change Firefox 2 to start with that then create a new profile.

I strongly agree. Internet Explorer's favourites management is much better than Firefox's. I searched for a FF extension for it to no avail!

The Spell Check Feature Is Great. I Am Using 2.0 Right Now, Excellent!

How do you make the address dropdown behave as links? Ever since I upgraded when I click the links it doesn't take me to it

I upgraded to Firefox 2.0. The session saver plugin does not work for it, but I found a way to enable Session Saver's functionality through Firefox 2.0's new session restore feature. Simply change browser.startup.page in about:config to 3, and Firefox will behavior like Firefox 1.5 with the session saver plugin. I also installed Firefox 1.5's theme because I find Firefox 2.0's theme aesthetically displeasing; anyone that feels similarly can get Firefox 1.5's theme for Firefox 2.0 at the following url:

Why go through about:config when you can enable a seesion saver right in the Options menu?
