June sees the final release of Firefox 3, the latest version of the open-source browser, and Mozilla Europe's President Tristan Nitot popped into our office the other day to show off some of the features. Most of the thousands of changes are hidden so far beneath the bonnet that users won't notice them - except perhaps for a welcome increase in speed - but there is one impressive new feature. read more »

Extends the function of the drag-and-drop mouse gesture so that it can be used to load URLs, do a web search of selected text on a page, or save an image on a page.

If you are using a Firefox nightly to browse the web, you (better) know you are walking on a minefield where a just landed patch can explode at any time taking some or all of your bookmarks, cookies or saved passwords with it.

Over the last six or seven months, I've come across literally hundreds of blog posts and a decent number of full-length articles explaining how Firefox users can make all of their extensions "compatible" or "work" with Firefox 3 betas by making a very simple change to one of Firefox's hidden preferences.

This idea is not true. You can not make your extensions compatible by changing a Firefox preference.
