Re: Firefox 3.5 RC1 now available
Sorry if this is a silly question but I am considering downloading Firefox RC2 and I can't find the answer on the net.
http://www.pcworld.com/article/16706...irst_look.html
I have 2 extra Firefox profiles which I use concurrently with my main profile and use them for running click programs. One with my VM IP and another with a VM proxy IP.
Now for the probably silly question.....If I download a Firefox 3.5 RC using my main profile will the other 2 profiles automatically use 3.5 or will they still use 3.11?

Re: Firefox 3.5 RC1 now available
Thanks Cobby, that's what I was afraid of.
I will have to check that the click exchange supermode add-on is geared up to handle it  and there's me all psyched up to be brave and kick my worry wort in to touch.

Re: Firefox 3.5 RC1 now available
Just installed the development build of Tab Mix Plus as the latest stable doesn't work with 3.5.
Doesn't seem to be working well at all, pity as it handles multiple tabs well in 3.0

Re: Firefox 3.5 RC1 now available
I'm back, and running FF3.5 RC2,....which may disappoint some ...but thrills me no end.
Shame I have lost my lovely Whitehart. Puzzled why the automatic checks after installation said neither Supermode nor Reload add-ons had workable versions when they were available , anyhow I have downloaded later versions of both and all my profiles seem to be working OK up to now. <worry wort mode on again>
Thanks for the moral support guys.
OH and sorry SnoopZ, only brewed enough for one cup, you will have to speak up quicker next time.

I've had no problems with it, i installed the latest dev build when i had firefox 3.5 beta4 and it's been working with RC1 and 2 just fine, unless i can't see what's not working.

Re: Firefox 3.5 RC1 now available
SnoopZ, would you mind trying this theme & seeing if TMP works with it? I get no protected tabs, no session restore, no close buttons on tabs, in fact hardly anything works!

I would think there will be a flurry of updates to add-ons and themes once FF3.5 is properly released at the end of the month.
