domino Posted July 14, 2006 Author Share Posted July 14, 2006 I tested and it runs. I just can' trade off the new features over the plug-ins I need to be productive with Ff. UNO theme for Ff 1.5 isn't supported yet. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/21898-firefox-2x/#findComment-144741 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swad Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Thanks Domino - I saw that it was out but haven't tried it yet. Firefox Extensions + Camino Look and Feel = Heaven.

domino Posted September 2, 2006 Author Share Posted September 2, 2006 I just switched over to Ff 2b2 in winXP/vista, Linux, and OS X. I used the nightly-1.1 extension to get most of my 1.5 extensions and themes working in Linux and Windows. Under OS X, all of the themes and extensions worked without forcing them to! However, I elected to disable some older extensions in favor of the beta's own extensions. I just love the spell check feature. Google won't be looking up and caching words for me anymore.
