Today, 11/26/2011, my Mozilla screen changed completely and eliminated bookmarks, tool bar items, reduce/full page icons at the top, my pc tool bar icons at the bottom and the URL line at the top.

Chosen solution

If you do not see the orange Firefox button make sure you are not in Full screen mode by toggling "F11" on/off. If you were not in Full screen mode ..

You can make Firefox 7.0.1 look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6). Whether or not you make changes, you should be aware of what has changed and what you have to do to use changed or missing features.

There is a lot more beyond those first 10 steps listed, if you want to make Firefox more functional.

Thank you so very much. As it turned out I was able to correct the problem but I'm going to tuck this away for future use for myself and others.

Thank you again.
