Also, the following features do not work as of this release:
* do-browser

* installation/updating/etc. (hence why you need to copy the files)
Please post bugs, comments, and suggestions to this group. All feedback 
is welcome!

did you download and copy the files to your firefox plugins directory?
the directory on my machine is \Program Files\Mozilla FireFox\plugins
Henrik

yes. same dir.
JoshM

close and restart firefox?
Henrik

I didn't restart. I now reloaded the page after dismissing the missing 
plugins message bar and the plugin disappeared now
JoshM

FYI: After copying the files, you need to restart your Mozilla-based 
browser.
Henrik

One more thing: you can verify that the plugin is installed by going 
to about:plugins.
Henrik

Excellent!
It should show up as "REBOL/Plugin for Mozilla"
Henrik

again after reloading test.html the plugin disappears
JoshM

thank you very... much
it works if you close the tab and open the url in a new one
I wonder if it registers that the plugin should start several times 
(which is what you can't do?)

Not RAMBO. Maybe create a checklist here and put them on it.

pressing the "Read FTP" button in the test script gives me:


** User Error: Server error: tcp 421 Unable to set up secure anonymous 
FTP
** Near: view-text read ftp://ftp.rebol.com/test.txt

So, when to see some of the demo contest as pages?

graham, it seems you need to use a different method to embed under 
mozilla than under IE
doesn't work on firefox here

Cyphre demo, I just get a white screen. Test.html worked though
hit back button and forward and then  cyprhes worked. guess it was 
still downloading something.
Sound working too. :-)
