Official Mozilla Firefox 3.1 Beta 3 for Download

After releasing stable Firefox 3.0.7 few days ago, Mozilla announced the Firefox 3.1 Beta 3 which is now available to community tester and its developers. Firefox 3.1 was, in the first place, intended to be an incremental update but plan was changed as there are significant feature set introduced.



Firefox 3.1 Beta 3 which is based on the Gecko 1.9.1 rendering platform, brings a lot of impressive changes, including new features for users and developers and performance enhancements. The changes include:



* Available in 64 languages so get your local version

* Improvements to web worker thread support

* Improved the new Private Browsing Mode

* Improved performance and stability with the new TraceMonkey JavaScript engine

* Improvements to the Gecko layout engine, including speculative parsing for faster content rendering

* New native JSON support

* Support for new web technologies such as the and elements, JavaScript query selectors, the W3C Geolocation API, SVG transforms, (CSS 2.1 and 3 properties) and offline applications.



I just get Mozilla Firefox 3.1 installed. Don't worry about conflict that might be triggered between your current Firefox version with the beta version. The beta version won't overwrite or interfere with your current Firefox. Obviously there will be several plugins that don't work until updates are made for them.
