I am currently building the latest Firefox updates and I have noticed that they have upgraded the CentOS-7 Firefox from the ESR tree (45.8) to the mainline tree (Currently firefox-52.0). They have left EL5 and EL6 at the ESR level (45.8.0-2). EL7: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017-0461.html EL5 and EL6: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017-0459.html As stated above, I am currently building and testing these, so they are not yet released .. just preparing people for the changes.

In one tab, using noscript, I enabled youtube and googlevideo. It affected a *separate* firefox window, opened from the firefox file menu. The video played, and went to play something else. I closed the tab, which is the *only* place that youtube was enabled. Instead, it kept playing. I actually shut down firefox altogether... and it kept playing. It didn't stop until I brought up firefox again, opened the original tab, and disabled youtube there. *Then*, and only then, did it stop playing. mark

We don't make technical changes to our RPMs. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
