Firefox 5 Released
Mozilla today released a new version of Mozilla Firefox for Windows, Mac, Linux and Android. The new version of Firefox has new features, performance enhancements, security updates and stability improvements.
The latest version of Firefox includes more than 1,000 improvements and performance enhancements that make it easier to discover and use all of the features in Firefox. This release adds support for more modern Web technologies that make it easier for developers to build Firefox Add-ons, Web applications and websites.
Firefox for Android includes the "Do Not Track" privacy feature in this release, making Firefox the first browser to support Do Not Track on multiple platforms. Mozilla created Do Not Track to give users more control over the way their browsing behavior is tracked and used on the Web. The feature, which lets users tell websites that they wish to opt-out of online behavioral tracking, is now easier to find in Firefox Preferences.
Firefox offers users complete control over the look and functionality of their Web browser with a gallery of add-ons.
Mozilla has a rich set of resources that make it easier for Web developers to build Firefox Add-ons using HTML, JavaScript and CSS. The new Firefox Add-on SDK for Windows, Mac and Linux enables local development of add-ons, while the Firefox Add-on Builder Beta provides a hosted Web-based build environment. Developers can build Firefox Add-ons for all platforms that install and update without requiring a browser restart.
Firefox for Windows, Mac and Linux now supports the CSS Animations standard to enable developers to build Web applications and websites.
