All devtools bugs fixed between Firefox 40 and Firefox 41: note that many of these bugs, especially those relating to the performance tools, were uplifted to Firefox 40.

• Support for laying out vertical scripts has been activated by default (bug Firefox 1138384). That means that the following CSS properties are now available:
  • Choosing the direction of writing: writing-mode.
  • Controlling orientation of characters: text-orientation.
  • Direction-independent equivalents of width and height: block-size and inline-size.
  • Direction-independent equivalents of min-width and min-height: min-block-size and min-inline-size.
  • Direction-independent equivalents of max-width and max-height: max-block-size and max-block-size.
  • Direction-independent equivalents of margin-top, margin-right, margin-bottom and margin-left: margin-block-start, margin-block-end, margin-inline-start and margin-inline-end.
  • Direction-independent equivalents of padding-top, padding-right, padding-bottom and padding-left: padding-block-start, padding-block-end, padding-inline-start and padding-inline-end.
  • Direction-independent equivalents of border-top, border-right, border-bottom and border-left and their longhands for width, style and color: border-block-start, border-block-start-width, border-block-start-style, border-block-start-color, border-block-end, border-block-end-width, border-block-end-style, border-block-end-color, border-inline-start, border-inline-start-width, border-inline-start-style, border-inline-start-color, border-inline-end, border-inline-end-width, border-inline-end-style and border-inline-end-color.
  • Direction-independent equivalents of top, right, bottom and left: offset-block-start, offset-block-end, offset-inline-start and offset-inline-end.

• <a> without an href attribute is no longer classified as interactive content. Clicking it inside <label> will activate labelled content (bug Firefox 1167816).
• SVG icons are now supported for site icons, that is favicons and shortcut icons (bug Firefox 366324).
• The crossorigin attribute is now supported for <link rel='preconnect'> (bug Firefox 1174152).

• Date.prototype (en-US) is now an ordinary object, not a Date instance anymore (bug Firefox 861219).
• Date.prototype.toString is now a generic method (bug Firefox 861219).
• Symbol.species has been added (bug Firefox 1131043).
• Map[@@species] and Set[@@species] getters have been added (bug Firefox 1131043).
• Non-standard let expression support has been dropped (bug Firefox 1023609).
• Destructured parameters with default value assignment are now supported (bug Firefox 1018628).
• Per ES6, curly braces are required for method definitions. Syntax without them will fail from now on (bug Firefox 1150855).
• Method definitions (except for generator methods) are not constructable anymore (bug Firefox 1059908 and bug Firefox 1166950).
• As part of ES6 specification compliance, parenthesized destructuring patterns, like ([a, b]) = [1, 2] or ({a, b}) = { a: 1, b: 2 }, are now considered invalid and will throw a SyntaxError. See Jeff Walden's blog post for more details.
• The new.target syntax has been added (bug Firefox 1141865).

HTML Editing API

• Cut, copy and paste commands handling has been revamped and now allow programmatic copying and cutting from JS for Web content:
  • With the 'paste' command as argument, Document.queryCommandSupported() now returns false if has insufficient privileges to actually perform the action (bug Firefox 1161721).
  • With the 'cut' or 'copy' command as argument, Document.queryCommandSupported() now returns true if called within the context of a user-initiated or privileged code (bug Firefox 1162952).
  • With the 'cut' or 'copy' command as argument, Document.execCommand() now works, but only within the context of user-initiated or privileged code (bug Firefox 1012662).

Events

• The non-standard CloseEvent.initCloseEvent() (en-US) method and the ability to create a CloseEvent using the Event.createEvent('CloseEvent') method has been removed; use the standard constructor, CloseEvent() (en-US) instead (bug Firefox 1161950).
• On Desktop, PointerEvent is now activated by default in Nightly; it is not activated in Developer Edition, Beta or Release and won't be for at least some versions (bug Firefox 1166347).
• The unprefixed version of MouseEvent.movementX (en-US) and MouseEvent.movementY (en-US)}} have been added; the prefixed versions are deprecated and will be removed at some point in the future (bug Firefox 1164981).

Web Crypto

• SubtleCrypto.importKey() (en-US) and SubtleCrypto.exportKey() (en-US) now supports ECDH keys (bug Firefox 1050175).

Canvas API

• HTMLCanvasElement.captureStream() (en-US) and CanvasCaptureMediaStream (en-US) have been added and allow to stream the display of a <canvas> in real-time (bug Firefox 1032848).
• MediaStream.id (en-US) now returns the unique id of a stream (bug Firefox 1089798).
• The initial value of CanvasRenderingContext2D.filter (en-US) is now correctly set to none (bug Firefox 1163124).

Service Workers

• Improvement to our experimental Service Worker (en-US) implementation:
  • ServiceWorkerGlobalScope.skipWaiting() (en-US) has been implemented (bug Firefox 1131352).
  • Clients.claim() has been added (bug Firefox 1130684).
  • The other functional events of Service Workers have been made to inherit from ExtendableEvent, giving them access to the waitUntil() (en-US) method (bug Firefox 1160527).
• The CacheStorage and Cache interfaces are now supported (bug Firefox 1110144).

Miscellaneous

• On OS X and Windows, Navigator.onLine now changes regarding network connectivity (it always returned true, , unless "Work offline" mode was selected) before (bug Firefox 654579).
• MessagePort (en-US) and MessageChannel (en-US) now available in Web workers, and are enabled by default in all contexts (bug Firefox 952139) and (bug Firefox 911972).
• The User Timing API is now available in Web workers (bug Firefox 1155761).
• The Notifications API is now available in Web workers (bug Firefox 916893).
• DOMRequest and DOMCursor are now available in Web workers (bug Firefox 1167650).
• The CSS Font Loading API (en-US) is now enabled by default (bug Firefox 1149381).
• Shared workers can no longer be shared between private (i.e. browsing in a private window) and non-private documents (see bug Firefox 1177621).
• The URLUtilsSearchParams.searchParams property is now read-only (bug Firefox 1174731).
• The URLUtils.hash property no longer decodes URL fragment (bug Firefox 1093611).

New default and fallback font handling

Mathematical formulas require special fonts. So far, these fonts were hard-coded in the mathml.css user agent stylesheet (which sets the font-family on <math> tag) and in the preference option font.mathfont-family (which sets the fallback fonts to use for stretchy and large operators). Firefox 41 introduces, an internal x-math language that is automatically set on the <math> tag as well as corresponding preference options (e.g. font.name.serif.x-math). The user agent stylesheet now sets font-family to serif on the <math> tag and the preference option font.mathfont-family is replaced with font.name.serif.x-math. All platforms now essentially use the same list of fallback fonts, with "Latin Modern Math" as first one. The default/fallback fonts can be configured from the standard per-language font preference menu. For more details, see bug Firefox 947654 and bug Firefox 1160456.

• Site icons (favicons, shortcut icons) now support SVG (bug Firefox 366324).

• The media.autoplay.enabled preference now also apply to untrusted HTMLMediaElement.play() invocations too, that is calls from non-users activated scripts (bug Firefox 659285).

• The X-Content-Duration header is no longer supported (bug Firefox 1160695).

pas de changement.

• The CSP (en-US) 1.1 manifest-src directive (en-US) is now supported (bug Firefox 1089255).
