What's New in Firefox 1.5
Firefox 1.5 is the next version of our award-winning Web browser.
Here's what's new in Firefox 1.5:
* Automated update to streamline product upgrades. Notification of an
update is more prominent, and updates to Firefox may now be half a
megabyte or smaller. Updating extensions has also improved.
* Faster browser navigation with improvements to back and forward
button performance.
* Drag and drop reordering for browser tabs.
* Improvements to popup blocking.
* Clear Private Data feature provides an easy way to quickly remove
personal data through a menu item or keyboard shortcut.
* Answers.com is added to the search engine list.
* Improvements to product usability including descriptive error pages,
redesigned options menu, RSS discovery, and "Safe Mode" experience.
* Better accessibility including support for DHTML accessibility and
assistive technologies such as the Window-Eyes 5.5 beta screen reader
for Microsoft Windows. Screen readers read aloud all available
information in applications and documents or show the information on a
Braille display, enabling blind and visually impaired users to use
equivalent software functionality as their sighted peers.
* Report a broken Web site wizard to report Web sites that are not
working in Firefox.
* Better support for Mac OS X (10.2 and greater) including profile
migration from Safari and Mac Internet Explorer.
* New support for Web Standards including SVG, CSS 2 and CSS 3, and
JavaScript 1.6.
* Many security enhancements.
