Firefox 3.5
« on: July 01, 2009, 10:37:43 PM »
I just upgraded to 3.5 and it absolutely flies on my Intel Mac Mini.  I can even play my Ogg Vorbis files on it without a plugin needed!  The Ogg Theora support hogs a little bit more bandwidth than Flash but it is good images.  Are there any other good websites where I can test it?

Thanks!  It works great when the video downloads completely before it plays!

http://www.brighthub.com/internet/web-development/articles/38364.aspx has an article on how to use the new "canvas" tag.  The demo on linked on the last page does 3-layer parallax!

Hi,

I've just installed FF3.5 on my desktop (P4 3.0HT, 512MB RAM, XP Pro) and laptop (same spec) and I honestly can't noticed any difference in speed between it and FF 3.0.11...

Maybe I'm visiting the wrong sites! :-)

Mike.

The layout is quite a bit faster on the Mac version.  It's still limited by the speed of your internet hookup though.
