Firefox Browser
Firefox for mobile
(codenamed Fennec ) is
the build of the Mozilla
Firefox web browser for
devices such as
smartphones and tablet
computers .
Firefox for mobile uses the
same Gecko layout engine
as Mozilla Firefox . For
example, version 1.0 used
the same engine as
Firefox 3.6, and the
following release, 4.0,
shared core code with
Firefox 4.0. Its features
include HTML5 support,
Firefox Sync , add-ons
support and tabbed
browsing .[4]
History
Plugin support was
initially disabled by
default, removing
compatibility with popular
web content types such as
Adobe Flash .[5] In
September 2011, Flash
support has implemented
in pre-release builds for
pre-Honeycomb versions of
Android. [6] Flash support
for Android 2.x and 4.x
has been enabled for
most smartphones in
version 14.0, while
support for Android 3.x
may come in a later
release. [7]
The browser's version
numbering was bumped
from version 2.0 to
version 4.0 to more
closely match desktop
releases of Firefox since
the rendering engines
used in both browsers are
the same. [8]
