This document covers what's new, download and installation instructions, known issues and frequently asked questions for the Phoenix 0.1 (Pescadero) release. Please read these notes before reporting any bugs to Bugzilla. Thanks.

What's NewPhoenix is not your father's Mozilla browser. It's a lean and fast browser that doesn't skimp on features. A few of the features new to this release include:
  • Customizable toolbar

    The Phoenix toolbar is easily and quickly re-configured. Users can re-order the buttons and addressbar, can show large or small icons, and can chose to display buttons and text, text only of buttons only. The feature, available from the View|Customize Toolbar... dialog is a convenient way for the user, not the application, to determine what works best for her.

  • earch for Bookmarks and History

    The Bookmarks and History managers contain a quicksearch bar for quickly and easily filtering the list of bookmarks or history items. Quicksearch makes managing these lists faster and much more convenient.

  • Speed, Speed, and Speed

    Phoenix was designed with performance as a primary goal. The XUL experts built a browser that starts in nearly half the time of Mozilla and its commercial derivatives. New windows also snap into existence almost twice as fast as Mozilla and commercial derivatives.

  • Overhauled Bookmarks Manager

    Phoenix fixes lots of common problems with the bookmarks manager, and adds new undo/redo capability.

  • New Look

    The Phoenix browser has a fresh new look that combines the stylish icons of the Orbit theme with respect for the system colors/skins/fonts of the Mozilla Classic theme.

  • Reasonable Default Settings
