FireFox Changes 1.0 1.5
So far so good! As of 03/DEC/2005 there have been a few issues with the newly
released FireFox 1.5. Some websites are not working like in FireFox 1.0.7 - especially
(poorly) designed drop down menus. Well, that's life, or isn't it ?
One issue which has bothering me for the past days was this:
var treeBox = this.treeBoxObject;
var row = {};
var col = {};
var obj = {};
treeBox.getCellAt(event.clientX,event.clientY,row,col,obj);
var colid;
if (typeof col.value == "object") { // FireFox 1.5
colid = col.value.id;
} else { // FireFox 1.0
colid = col.value;
}
Obviously FF 1.0 and FF 1.5 are treating the XUL tree differently. Well, now
as I've figured out how to treat it correctly it's not that big deal, but as I've
already mentioned above, it took some time, since this stuff is not well documented
well at all.
This page is update as soon as I discover more API changes from 1.0 to 1.5.
Yeah, and here we go:
Firefox 1.5 has new features, but it also has more bugs than any open source browser
I've used so far. FF 1.5 crashes on certain sites, running java applets, page rendering
is messed up sometimes, but not always, and so one... So, if you can, stay with 1.0.X
as long as you can, until a stable, mature Firefox 1.5.1 (or 1.5.2 etc.) appears at mozilla.org.
