On October 20, 2001 mozilla.org made available for download binaries of
the Mozilla 0.9.6 Milestone.  The builds and release notes are available
at http://www.mozilla.org/releases/.  New to this milestone are fixes
for about 1,600 bugs including:

* Mozilla now displays page icons in the url bar (Expect support for
shortcut icons (aka favicon) in Mozilla 0.9.7). Page icons can be
defined in the html head section of a document like so:

     <LINK REL="icon" HREF="images/mozilla-16.png" TYPE="image/png">
     <LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON" 
HREF="/images/global/branding/dellecomicon.ico">

* Mozilla can now display Windows .BMP and .ICO images on all platforms.
* Print Preview has been implemented.
* Macintosh Page Setup has been implemented (Bug 36796)

* Mail "prefill mail filter" support has been implemented (Bug 65761)
* The new Search for item on the context menu lets you search for any
   text you highlight on a web page.
   * Select some text in browser window.
   * Right click in the browser window and a context menu will
     pop up.
   * Choose the Search for item and Mozilla will search for the
     highlighted text with your default search engine.
