Chrome registration
note: there was a bug in gecko

1.8.0.13 and gecko
1.8.1.5 contained a bug where if you use the comparisons <, > or =, the version string had be two or more characters long.
...this is very helpful when trying to write a chrome.manifest file as you can inspect where the files are being mapped from (jar files, local directory, etc.) old-style contents.rdf manifests before the plaintext manifests were introduced (which happened in firefox 1.5, toolkit

SpiderMonkey 17
these release notes are an incomplete draft and were initially seeded from the (now-defunct)
1.8.8 release notes, which were themselves seeded from the
1.8.5 release notes, so lots of the information here isn't actually new to spidermonkey 17.

SpiderMonkey: The Mozilla JavaScript runtime
js debugger api reference api reference for the debugger object introduced in spidermonkey
1.8.6, which corresponds to gecko 8.0 (firefox 8.0 / thunderbird 8.0 / seamonkey 2.5).
Security and the jar protocol
so starting with gecko
1.8.0.15 and
1.8.1.10, the jar: protocol is only allowed if the mime type of the file is application/java-archive.
Bundling multiple binary components
if the component uses only "frozen" xpcom interfaces, there is a good chance the same binary component will work with different versions of gecko (version
1.8 and 1.9, for example).
Components.utils.evalInSandbox
for instance: var x = components.utils.evalinsandbox( "let x = 1;", sandbox, "
1.8", // "latest" is recognized as a special case "http://foo.com/mycode.js", 25 ); the above will execute code using javascript
1.8.
XPCShell Reference
for instance, specifying -v 180 will set the interpreter to use javascript version
1.8.
xpcshell
to rectify this, run xpcshell with the -v 180 command-line option, which tells xpcshell to use javascript
1.8.
NS_Alloc
history this function was finalized for mozilla
1.8.
NS_Free
history this function was finalized for mozilla
1.8.
NS_GetMemoryManager
any code, intended to be used exclusively with mozilla
1.8 and above, may use ns_alloc, ns_realloc, and ns_free instead to access the xpcom memory manager's methods.
NS_InitXPCOM3
history this function was finalized for mozilla
1.8.
NS_Realloc
history this function was finalized for mozilla

nd padding on the <figure> element need to be removed so that all the available space is taken advantage of, and the buttons are a bit too small so this needs to be altered by setting a new height on the element that has the .controls class set on it: @media screen and (max-width:64em) { figure { padding-left:0; padding-right:0; height:auto; } .controls { height:
1.876rem; } } this works well enough until it is viewed on a smaller screen (680px/42.5em), so another breakpoint is made here.
