But then I looked at what "navigator.userAgent" revealed

    for FF1.5:

        Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv: 1.8)
         Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5

    for FF1.0.7:

        Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv: 1.7.12)
         Gecko/20050915 Firefox/1..0.7

Mozilla release versions ... Firefox versions ... huh?
