Hi all

I’ve designed an add-on that allows to choose the vertical order of your toolbars, you can move them by drag and drop: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/3571/

I’ve just discovered that this also works with the Facebook toolbar also – its icons can be dragged and dropped.

Thanks for the link.

As about HTML in comments, yes it’s allowed . I am not really sure why it didn’t work in your case. ??? There is a slight chance that our spam filtering plugin had filtered them out. Sorry, abt that

Yes, I did forget. Sorry. Here it is:

I did include links for the extensions, and for how to remove the go button, etc., but they never showed up in my comment. (Is HTML not allowed in comments?). If you want to get the extension or tip instructions, just google ‘em.

You will notice that I left off the “htt*:// in the address above, in case HTML is stripped out.

More ideas.

Why even use the Google Toolbar in FF?
Save space with “TinyMenu”

Resize the searchbar with “searchbar autosizer”

Remove “Go” button

Remove Search Box “Magnifying Glass”

Remove unneeded icons (especially the throbber) using “customize”

Now you can use “customize” to move everything off the navigation toolbar to the topmost bar. Then in “view” you can hide the Navigation toolbar.

Here is a shot of my setup (before I got rid of the magnifying glass)
