Powerbook,
I know you are doing a great job! But hey, why don't we take a look at it. We have nothing to lose. If it's for the betterment of everybody, maybe we could adopt some of it's features. So far I don't like the icon. Middle click doesn't work. But I think it can render IE based web sites better.

I wont stop you from testing the Madfox browser, but I will personally stay clear.
Why?
* I dont use release builds (Madfox 0.3.2 update 1 = Firefox 1.0.4 + some additional code).
* I follow the Trunk development tight.
* I provide G4 optimized Firefox Trunk builds to "the masses".
* I dont have the knowledge to port the Madfox specific source code to Firefox Trunk.
* Sites who dont work properly in Firefox, but work fine in IE, are broken. The website should be fixed, not the browser accessing them!
Thank you.

LOL
Feel free to give it a real test. Then if you feel there are features in it that you want in Firefox, post a bug report and let the developers decide.

This build rocks - I've been using it for weeks now, starting on day one, since I got my first Mac, ever
Anyways, there is only ONE thing that is absolutely ticking me off about this build, and if it was fixed, then I would be forever grateful
The dreaded bug listed here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=289973

My builds now include the 'Pretty Form Widgets' by phiw13.
While we wait for Josh Aas to port Cocoa widgets (link) to Firefox, I decided to add these to my builds.
Thank you Philippe!
