firefox installation using terminal

Asked by rajusenthi

Hi
I'm using ubuntu 8.10.To prevent firefox starts with offline mode,I uninstalled firefox and try to reinstall through synaptic package manager.But installation using synaptic is a very long journey with it.I also tried to change download locations from the software sources,but nothing improves.Hence I want to install firefox 3,0 using terminal.How can I install firefox using terminal?
