On the same day that Apple released the public version of Safari 4 for Windows and Mac, Mozilla published an update to its Firefox 3.5 beta. Available for Windows, Mac and Linux, the company is not calling this a beta version but it's not a release candidate, either.
Within the next 24 hours, the Firefox 3.5 beta 4 will auto-update to what Mozilla is calling a "preview" version. Users can also force the update by going to the Help menu, then Check for Updates.
In a press release, Mozilla said Firefox 3.5 Preview will leverage the more than 800,000 users of the 3.5 beta to further test changes made to the browser, indicating that it feels the browser is fine for daily use but might still contain significant problems.
The update makes a large number of bug-fixes for stability, tweaks the Mozilla JavaScript engine TraceMonkey, and improves support for the baked-in Ogg-based open audio and video standards.
There's also a minor interface change in the Preview. Tab management buttons are now grey on grey, changed from the green on grey.
