The info on the web said that 1.5 was in the ports collection but the source ball in the ports dir was for 1.0.7 and I have seen people with questions about firefox 1.5. I have used each of the methods suggested in the handbook for upgrading the ports tree but the source has stayed for 1.0.7. Is this a case of have to install it from the source on the mozilla web site? Is there any easy way to install firefox 1.= 5? I have a feeling that I am missing some glaring fact that will solve this but I have been unable to find it for a week. So I figured I would go cryin= g for help. -- cheers Ben Siemon cs.baylor.edu/~siemon
