looking for close tab option under the file dropdown menu. I can't seem to find it. Each time I select exit it boots me completely off the internet. Where do I find the close tab feature that was on the previous version?

On your previous version of Firefox on the file drop down menu, close tab was an option. On the new 4.0 version that I just downloaded there is NO CLOSE TAB option on the file drop down menu. Every time I select EXIT it boots me completely off the internet. This was a feature used several time daily by me on the previous version. If this is not a feature on the current version of Firefox I need to know how to reinstall the previous version since this is a feature that I am constantly using. I can't use this version that won't let me close the CURRENT TAB (web page) that I am on without closing my browser completely. I need to just close the CURRENT TAB and move on to the next page or web site I am going to. Please respond ASAP.

You can right click the tab and choose "Close Tab" to close a tab.


Some menu entries are hidden by default and only appear if you use the keyboard to open the menu.

You can see the difference if you use Alt+F or Alt+B to open the "File" and "Bookmarks" menu and compare that to what you see if you use the mouse to open the menu after you have made the menu bar visible by pressing Alt or by pressing F10.

Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.
