Everyone cheer now! Firefox 1.0 PR (Preview Release) is open for business.
Seems to work ok. Web Developer Toolbar works great still (I highly recommend this if you do any dev work. The “clear session cookies” button alone would be worth some cash… and it has tons of other great tools), and sadly, LiveHTTPHeaders is still broken… at least in .9 it vaguely worked if you told it you were trying to configure it and then opened a second browser window… in 1 it doesn’t work at all. I hope they fix it soon, that’s a really good tool for dev work, you can see the communication between the server and the browser and back, very good for debugging issues with forms.
So… what are you waiting for? Go get it!
Oh and thunderbird .8 and mozilla 1.7.3.x.y.z.w.q.r.t are out, too.







Hey JC… That’s actually Firefox 1.0 PR (Preview Release). You may want to correct that.
Thanks… I had that in the title attribute on the link… but that’s not good enough… it’s there in text now. :-)
You also might want to do a complete uninstall, nuke your profile, and install from scratch, if you’re having that much trouble with Live HTTP Headers: I’ve been using it all along, up to 20040910 (haven’t gotten around to PR(1?) yet), without any trouble at all, so if you had 0.9x troubles, you may just be carrying them along with you in your profile.
I’m pretty sure I did all that. livehttpheaders worked in .9 only insofar as if I told it I wanted to modify the settings, it would open… I couldn’t get it to open in a tab automatically like I could with the previous versions. With PR1, the extension thing just disables it entirely as incompatible. But I’m sure they’ll either come out with a new version, or an extension will come out for pr1 to enable old extensions
Maybe I’ll give it a try at home and see if it works there.
