I would like to have the navigation bar controls to the right of the menu bar options in the same horizontal space, saving vertical space. This could be done with side-by-side bars or one "compound bar".

Can I do this? How? Thanks for your help.

Use the procedure in the following link. It shows how to customize the toolbars, allowing you to drag and drop the items you want onto the menu bar. You can then hide the navigation toolbar - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/how-do-i-customize-toolbars

You can, if you prefer, hide the menu bar and it will be replaced with the Firefox button. To do that right-click on a toolbar and click on the "Menu bar" entry to de-select it. Then using the Firefox 4 UI Fixer add-on you can convert the Firefox button into an ordinary button that can be moved like other buttons on the toolbar - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/firefox-4-ui-fixer

Thanks for the reply. I see my mistake now.

The navigation bar controls did not appear in the "Customize Toolbar" palette. I was not thinking about dragging them directly from one bar to another.

Thanks again.
