If you know how to do it then by all means send me the plugin, until then you're best off using FF2 standalone next to FF3/3.5 for proper web testing :) As it stands there isn’t a plugin that would enable you to use the older Gecko engine.

For accurate web testing you will want to keep that in mind. No, due to the fact that FF2 uses a different version of the Gecko engine than FF3 / FF3.5 do.

Thanks for explaining how to launch them at the same time. This helped me debug another developer's code. It's annoying to see the difference, but FF2 vs FF3 is much closer than any other browser before (*cough* ... IE6 ... IE7). Great article! Thanks for explaining how to launch them at the same time.
