Mozilla 1.7, Firefox 0.9 Release Candidates Out
An anonymous reader writes "mozilla.org have released what are expected to be the final release candidates for their next versions: Mozilla 1.7RC3 (MozillaZine article; download) should iron out any final bugs in what will replace 1.4 as the new stable branch and Firefox 0.9RC (MozillaZine article; download) features the new default theme ported from Mac OS on Windows (though please bear in mind that the theme is nowhere near finished yet). The final releases of these versions are due very soon."
Can Firefox disable animated images now?
it always could,its just hidden in the depths of config, ok
type about:config in your urlbar
scroll down to
image.animation_mode
double click on the entry and change the string from
normal
to
once
click ok , and you should be good to go
You have to use the secret[shhhh] config options.
Type about:config in the location bar. Filter on image.
You're looking for image.animation_mode. The value I use is once. I'm not sure what the other values are (true, false?).
Good luck.
Yeah Firefox .9rc okay I guess, except it broke all my extensions. Goddamn, half the reason I used it was because there was a mouse gestures plugin, and now it won't even let me reinstall it. Thanks guys. Bravo.
