Look for a release that fixes Tips in the next day or so.

I don’t get an error creating a Tips instance, but I do get an annoying empty tooltip permanently stuck at the top left of my page. I’ll have to disable Tips altogether for now. Hopefully it’ll be fixed soon!

Why have the previous Mootools versions used getBoxObjectFor to detect Gecko, instead of User Agent?

And what will happen to those pages which won't upgrade Mootols when Firefox 3.6 is released?

Thanks for also updating 1.1.1! Although I’d like to move existing applications from 1.1.1 to 1.2.4 it’s not always possible to do so (time, budget, etc.). Thanks.

Will update as soon as the tiny glitches (More.Tips) are fixed ;) Been using mootools for years now, and loving it!

Great! I've come across two minor but yet annoying bugs and I can't find the place to report them.

Opening the contextmenu on a sortables ul > li disabled sortables from that moment on, recreating an instance of the sortables does the trick, but to my surprise the .attach() and .detach() do nothing.
The tips create an error at the creation of a new tips instance.

Any thought on dropping browser detection in favor of feature support? ala jQuery.support [http://docs.jquery.com/Utilities/jQuery.support]

Browser detection is dangerous as the Firefox 3.6 issue has shown. User Agent sniffing is just-as (or more) dangerous given the fact that users can change it.

Good catch guys. Sort of random and off subject… May I suggest adding keeto’s “Up The Moo Herd” link? I mean alot of the links in the sidebar aren’t always that relevant to MooTools. Keeto’s series is really well done.
