This is the first I have Firefox7 (I like the others better, won't upgrade my other laptops)

I can not find the little X to close a tab. I want to close the tabs I want to close and so far I have not been able to find a way to do this.

So how do I do this?

You can close a tab with a middle-click on that tab if you do not see a close button.

Set the pref browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab to false on the about:config page to prevent closing the last tab from closing the browser and make a close button appear if only one tab is open.


Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
