Mozilla.org has pulled the latest incremental build of the open-source Mozilla browser, 1.2, after discovering a bug that causes problems with some pages. A note on the "Mozilla Releases" page reads:

"We've discovered a bug in Mozilla 1.2 (Bugzilla bug 182500) that can cause DHTML on some sites to fail. We plan to release Mozilla 1.2.1 with a fix shortly."

"Also, the 1.2 release tag was not complete so builds created from that tag may not be correct. If you're building Mozilla you can pull the tip of the branch or wait for the 1.2.1 tag."

The new 1.2 release of Mozilla includes a "Type Ahead Find" feature that allows quick navigation when you type a succession of characters in the browser, matching the text in one or more links on the page. The new release can also pre-fetch content on linked pages, resulting in faster page loads.
