How can I change the behavior of the pulldown history list?
When you click on the little down arrow between the star and the clockwise arrow on the address bar, it seems to list the previously viewed websites in some kind of frequency of access order.
Is there a way to have this pulldown work like IE does? That is, show me the last 20ish sites I typed in without regard to how often I have visited the site?

Hello dkwdkw and thanks for contacting us,
AFAIK, there is no possibility to change the way the dropdown list is sorted. The drop-down list has been designed to be useful. Most users want to go to their most seen pages, and that's why the combo has this sorting. Don't know if some extension may change this order. Instead, if you want to see your last sites visited, press Control-H to see your history.
If you want to get 20 sites in the address/location bar (when you click on the little down arrow between the star and the clockwise arrow) go to About:config , find browser.urlbar.maxRichResults and change the value to 20 (right click on it, select modify and put the value you want), exit firefox and restart it.
thank you
