Second Beta Version of Firefox 3.1 to be released soon
Ben Turner, the programmer of Mozilla has informed that the second Beta version of firefox 3.1 would be released soon.The biggest change is the inclusion of “Web Workers”, which allows the browser to process tasks in the background.This is a great leap as it gives multicore computers to utilize their processors abilities. The release also includes performance and stability fixes.
As published in a blog,here is one illustration of Web workers…Running a JavaScript program that emulates a decades-old processor design, the 8080. One thread emulates the processor in the background while another handles user interaction such as checking for typing on the keyboard.
