Thanks for the info.  Never thought it would be so easy to install the Solaris 
version of Firefox.

Also, since it installs as a separate program into /opt by default, there is a 
refreshing sense of freedom from concerns that the new version may (vis-a-vis 
Windows, Mac, Linux, what else?) destroy the existing installation, or, worse,  
mess up my entire system.

Two very minor adjustments are recommended:

First, you probably would want to either copy or do a soft link of your plugins 
from the existing installation:

ln -s /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/*   /opt/lib/firefox/plugins/

Second, you should change the new Firefox homepage to:

file:///usr/share/doc/soldevex/html/developer_guide.html

This is, IMHO, the best part of SXCE (in that it creates a "trade address" that 
Solaris is the best forum to become, or attain the sharpness as, a software 
professional).
