Firefox 3 Beta 3 Now Available
Posted on February 14th, 2008 |
I’ve been using Firefox 3 Beta 2 at work, and today I received notification that the next beta, Firefox 3 Beta 3, was available as an automatic update. After the single-click update process, I launched the new version and noticed something strange:
The browser started up at that exact size. Bizarre.
Anyhow, if you’ve been using the previous beta, the theme changes, which I’ve covered here previously, are likely to jump out at you. If you’ve been using the Minefield builds, then probably not.
For more information on this new beta release, head on over to the Release Notes, or if you want to download the release and give it a try for yourself, you can do that too.

No problems with startup size for me (using it on OSX). The browser looks quite a bit different since the previous beta, but I do have one problem: they reversed the next/previous buttons when searching. Instead of “previous” on the left and “next” on the right, it is backward. This appears to be the case in OSX but not Linux (which leads me to think it may be related to their change to make the browser appear more “OSX-y”).

“OSX-y.” I’m kinda surprised Apple hasn’t trademarked that one yet.
