Hello,

Firefox is so flexible that extensions can implement big UI changes like moving the tab strip. Try installing the Tabs On Bottom extension which is fairly basic and therefore shouldn't be buggy.

You can easily move the Tab bar to the lower position with code in userChrome.css as basically you only need to give the Tab bar a higher -moz-box-ordinal-group value (most toolbars have a default -moz-box-ordinal-group:1 to show them in DOM order).

Add code to the userChrome.css file below the default @namespace line.

@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */

#TabsToolbar{-moz-box-ordinal-group:10000!important}

The customization files userChrome.css (user interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the chrome folder in the Firefox profile folder.

You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:

• Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)

pre 29 It used to be easy to have the adressbar next to the menu and put some buttons around it. (see atttachment)

Is it possible to have the old behaviour back? or what do I have to do to get it back as I had it?

You can look at the Classic Theme Restorer extension to restore some functionality that was lost with the arrival of the Australis style in Firefox 29 and have the items on the Navigation Toolbar customizable.

You can check the settings of the CTR extension via its Options/Preferences button on the "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" page.

Thank you! The extension is what I needed. With it I got it back to how I had it.
