Product Description:

Firefox is an award winning preview of next generation browsing technology from mozilla.org.

Firefox empowers you to accomplish your online activities faster, more safely and efficiently than any other browser, period. Built with Tab browsing, popup blocking and a number of other seamless innovations, Firefox stands out ahead.

CNET Editor's Review:
Though it's difficult to unseat Safari as the preferred browser of Mac users, Mozilla Firefox garners attention through its solid design and extra features, making it a worthy alternative. Even though Internet Explorer dominates the Web browser market, you might wonder why if you spend some time with Mozilla Firefox. This light and nimble Web wonder brought tabbed browsing into the mainstream (IE7 recently jumped on the bandwagon) and offers countless ways to customize it through extensions and themes.

Firefox 3.0.3 is far better at rendering HTML and CSS than its predecessors, but it still doesn't integrate well with Mac OS X. It's faster than ever and has more features, but it's still annoyingly clunky. Unless you need or want to use Firefox addons, <rhetorical)Why bother?</rhetorical> The word "feh" comes to mind.

Hello,

I could not manage Firefox 3.0.3 to display the font face "Gill Sans Light" which I have correctly specified in my css properties.

e.g.

.headline { font-size: 72px; font-family: "Gill Sans Light", "Gill Sans", Helvetica, Arial, Sans-Serif; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; text-decoration: none; }

This doesn't seem to work neither in Apple Safari. Has anyone a clue how to fix this?

graphically & sincerely,

Marc Klein

Still a few bugs, but overall an awesome product. Thanks Mozilla team! I used to use Camino, but with this version, I don't see many advantages with Camino anymore.
