Hello,

Maybe this help:

• How to make the new Firefox look like the old Firefox

So there's no way to do the things I asked about without adding an add-on? Also, how do I do the title thing I was asking about?

Some specifics changes not, others you can get using Themes, but without addons I think you dont get all customization back!

Do you know if I can get the title thing back to the way it was?

V 29 is vile. That's all there is to it :(

What do you mean?

I was also wondering: in the old version, when I bookmarked a page, a yellow star appeared in the navigation bar. I was wondering if there was a way to get that back? Thanks.

Hi cje24576:

(1) Tab appearance. I agree that it's hard to see what's going on when the background tabs only have that very subtle vertical line separating them. I am using an add-on to add an outline shape. It's Stylish, which lets you apply custom rules to the Firefox UI or to page contents. I posted my rule here if you're interested: http://userstyles.org/styles/100627/outline-background-tabs-firefox-29-australis

(2) Yellow star. It's now a blue star on the toolbar in the combined star/bookmarks button. If you took that off the toolbar, hmm, not sure if Firefox has a Plan B for showing that the current page is bookmarked.

I was wondering if there was some way to have the tabs look solid WITHOUT using the "Classic Theme Restorer" add-on or ANY add-on. I was using the "Classic Theme Restorer" but it seemed to be causing the browser to crash a lot (the only other add-on I have is "Shockwave Flash" (which is disabled). Thanks.

Hi cje24576, custom style rules can be applied to Firefox's user interface by creating or editing a file named userChrome.css.

This article has suggestions and links for easing this process: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Editing_configuration

A few tips on this file:

• The chrome folder might not exist. Its name needs to be all lowercase.
• The userChrome.css file might not exist. The only capital letter is the C in the fifth position.
• The file extension also needs to be .css and not .css.txt. If Windows says it still is a text document after you use the .css ending, you may need to turn off Windows' hiding of file extensions in order to fix that. This article has the steps: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/865219.

To get the style rule you need from a page on userstyles.org, you can do the following: click the "Show CSS" link to display the rule contents in a textbox. Select the contents of the textbox and press Ctrl+c. Then you're ready to paste into your editor.

If the file was not empty, or if your editor handles this detail for you, the @namespace line in the rule from userstyles.org might be a duplicate. This line only needs to be at the beginning of the file and you should delete the extra one(s) lower down in the file.
