    Pale Moon v26.0.0pb3 has been released!! Please post all your issues/feedback here: https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=9986.

    26.0.0 beta 3 (2015-10-27)

    Over 150 changes since beta 2, highlighting the most prominent:

    * Regular expressions behavior change for capturing groups: in the
    case of a capturing group with quantifiers preventing its exercise,
    the matched text for a capturing group is now |undefined| instead of
    an empty string.
    * Dragging and dropping an image that is served behind a redirect will
    now properly grab the image instead of the redirect code.
    * Autoplay of media will now also be blocked when autoplay is set to
    false and the user hasn't interacted with the element, even if this
    would normally be script-triggered (previously, this media playback
    triggered by JS would not be blocked).
    * |navigator.product| will now return "Gecko" instead of "Goanna"
    since this is a historical requirement (all browsers return "Gecko",
    even IE and Safari, and some libraries break otherwise). This should
    make the browser more compatible with particular libraries like
    certain in-page editors.
    * The Goanna milestone version has been bumped to 2.0 for the first
    release of Pale Moon with it. This to avoid a platform version used
    in legacy checks on the web for Gecko 1.8 and 1.9 (Firefox era 3.*)
    and following the logic that Pale Moon 25.* was in principle
    milestone 1.0.
    * Added Ecosia as a green search engine alternative.
    * Changed the J-PAKE server configuration to our own key server.
    * Added support for 128-bit Camellia-GCM ciphers in addition to the
    CBC ciphers.
    * Fixed the handling of location hash changes (hang).
    * Aligned the use of scrollbars in frames&iframes with the HTML5 spec,
    that states that overflow styling should not affect scrollbars in
    the frame.
    * Improved scaling for vector images (previously bitmap scaled, now
    drawn directly at the target resolution).
    * Improved GC memory shrinking.
    * Fixed the handling of media changes in onload= (hang).
    * Updated libnestegg.
    * Fixed a Netscape legacy bug where empty locations would hang the
    browser or cause rapid and endless reloads.
    * Changed the tab close buttons to be red on hover (Windows aero).
    Still needs some graphics updates.
    * Added a control pref for onunload= events as |dom.disable_beforeunload|.
    * Prevented (simulated) clicks during onunload to prevent DoS caused
    by unload looping. (bad pages are bad, mmkay?)
    * Prevented content preferences (dictionary) from being written
    without the user's interaction.
    * Fixed incorrect handling by WASAPI for surround channels (crash).
    * Removed N/A download listeners in the status bar code.
    * Permitted spec-breaking Regex classes for ranges.
    * Improved pure string matching performance for Regex (fast path).
    * Bumped Firefox compat version to 38.*.
    * Re-worked the theme styling for the default theme, including
    specific Win10 adjustments and fixes for the changes in metrics on
    that OS.
    * Added app/vendor specific UA override section + first entry for
    WhatsApp.
    * Crash fix: Gracefully handle bogus URIs passed to CSS style filters.
    * Pale Moon will now honor margin-left and margin-right on elements in
    inline layouts that have 0 width and/or height.
    * Added CSS media queries for determining OS: Linux, MacOS X, BSD in
    addition to the Windows ones.
    * Properly fixed the dictionary logic (rewrite).
    * Disabled battery API by default to prevent privacy leaks.
    * Removed incorrect orange color from the AppMenu button's edge.
    * Removed metro browser code.
