Firefox 1.5 Beta 2 with E4X

7th October 2005

The big news this week was Macromedia's announcement of Flex 2.0 and the Flash 8.5 Player. It looks like it's going to be a while before we get our hand on an IDE that supports all of the new flash player’s features (E4X, regular expressions, etc…), but you can still get a head start on those technologies.

How you may ask? By downloading the brand new second beta of Firefox 1.5. Firefox 1.5 adds support for E4X and continues to support regular expressions. I’m currently planning a series of E4X posts within the coming days and weeks, so stay tuned.
