As per my usual course, downloaded the latest nightly 2000113018
(2000-12-01 package) and readily noticed some of the changes that had
been applied.
I was very happy to see it successfully scoop my existing Netscape
profile and use that (oh blessed bookmarks!) right off the hop, and
then come up nicely to display the classic theme.
This is where my first bit of strangeness appeared. I prefer the
modern scheme, so right away I went through View->Apply Theme->Modern.
Everything changes over to modern but for some reason on the text on
Mozilla itself (not the browsing window, though) becomes very small...
I wouldn't be able to read it if I didn't already have some idea what
it already said. Out of curiosity I tried the "Blue" theme and it was
the same thing. Went back to the classic theme and the fonts returned
to normal. No combination of starting/stopping/creating new profiles
seemed to change this at all. Seems rather strange to me considering
the one theme works correctly, though.
In addition to this the navigation does not seem to be working quite
the way it used to. (With no proxies inbetween) I can navigate to
another page; Mozilla successfully shows the page, but does not change
the URL shown at top. If this is the first page I have went to from
my home page, then the "back button" will not be active either. On
the other hand, if the back area is active it will not jump to the
previous page, but two back (since the new page didn't "register").
I wanted to see if others were having the problem here, or if it is
just a transitional problem before I went and tracked dirt on Bugzilla
again.
But speaking of which, happiness does abound at the fact that
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58983 is well and truly
fixed! (I noticed it when I was browsing, and held my breath until I
actually checked bugzilla).
All in all though, I'm always impressed by the continual improvements
I see in Mozilla.
