With support for new CSS3 features, web designers can make their pages both look prettier and display faster.

 

>> HTML5 Support

 

A new HTML5 parser and full support for web video, audio, drag & drop, and file handling means Firefox 4 is ready to run the best web apps of both today and tomorrow.

>> Web Console

 

With this experimental analysis tool for modern sites, Firefox allows you to peek under the hood of dynamic web pages.

 

>> JetPack SDK (Making Add-On Development Easier)

 

Add-Ons can be installed without restarting the browser, and can be developed more easily using the new JetPack SDK and js-ctypes.

 

>> Indexed DB

 

Developers will be able to store application data locally, making cloud applications like Gmail or GDocs work more quickly and reliably, even when not connected to a network.

 

>> Crash Protection

 

Firefox provides uninterrupted browsing for Windows, Linux, and now Mac when there is a crash in the Adobe Flash, Apple Quicktime or Microsoft Silverlight plugins. If one of these commonly-used plugins crashes or freezes, it won’t affect the rest of Firefox. Instead, you can simply reload the page to restart the plugin and try again. Learn more about plugins.

Synchronize your settings, passwords, bookmarks, history, open tabs and other customizations across multiple devices so you can take Firefox with you wherever you go.

 

>> Faster, Faster, Faster

 

Lazy frame construction, hardware graphics acceleration, more asynchronous I/O and the start of our JavaScript performance optimizations are just some of the things we're doing to make Firefox faster.

 

>> New Privacy Controls

 

Makes it easier to know what info websites are gathering about you, what they can do to your computer and what they're allowed to know about you.

 

>> OSX and Linux Themes

 

The new interface described above will soon be available for Mac and Linux users.

A geo-targeting script scans the list to see in which country the current IP is located. Programmer can use this value to effect changes in presentation or logic. In the case of cloaking : Databases stores the IP addresses of the various spiders that may hit your site. The cloaking script scans the list to see if the current IP is a spider. The programmer can use this information to effect changes in presentation or logic. Implementations of IP-delivery-based cloaking also look at the User-Agent header of the request. The user agent header is a header sent by both browsers and spiders. But it is not regarded authoritative, bec...
