when you try to close the tab it is very diffucult to AIM these buttons, when you try to add new tab you do not have any problems at al i know it is not the firefox`s problem, other browthers have same IDIOTIC SMALL CLOSING BUTTON

i ask THIS: we have extremely small AREA which you need to click at to close tabs, we have comfort AREA which you need to click at to to add new tab, why then do not you enlarge closing button  ? it would be just perfect

Hi,

This has been fixed in the newer versions of Firefox. The close button is now nearly the same size as the new tab button. However, you cannot update to the new version because you are running Windows XP, which can only run Firefox ESR 52.

If you helps, you can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + W to close tabs if you are having issues pressing the close button with your mouse.
