Where has the bookmark property for specifying the icon gone?
In FF3 if I selected a bookmark and its properties, I was provided a field where I could specify the location on my PC for the desired icon for that bookmark. This was particularly true for specifying the icons for the Bookmarks Toolbar. I have the TotalToolbar v1.9.1 extension installed, but I am not sure that that extension gave me that capability for FF3. In FF4 there is no such property for bookmarks to specify, or change, the icon. One step back.

This issue is caused by an extension that isn't working in Firefox 4
You can look at this extension:
- Bookmark Favicon Changer: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/bookmark-favicon-changer/
You can try this add-on; it is Firefox 4 compatible:
You need to update the following:
- Adobe Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 11.5.8.612
- Next Generation Java Plug-in 1.6.0_24 for Mozilla browsers (version 1.6.0_25 is available for download, but is not available through manual update yet)
- Check your plugin versions on either of the following links':
- http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
- https://www-trunk.stage.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
- Note: plugin check page does not have information on all plugin versions
- There are plugin specific testing links available from this page:
- Update Shockwave for Director
- NOTE: this is not the same as Shockwave Flash; this installs the Shockwave Player.
- Use Firefox to download and SAVE the installer to your hard drive from the link in the article below (Desktop is a good place so you can find it).
- When the download is complete, exit Firefox (File > Exit)
- locate and double-click in the installer you just downloaded, let the install complete.
- Restart Firefox and check your plugins again.

- Update the Java plugin to the latest version.

- Be sure to un-check the Yahoo Toolbar option during the install if you do not want it installed.

The Bookmarks Favicon Changer add-on gave me the capability that I had before to change the bookmark toolbar icons. Thanks! I did not use this add-on for FF3, before, but it gets the job done.

You are welcome. Bookmark Favicon Changer is a new add-on; it was developed to be compatible with Firefox versions 3.5, 3.6 and 4.0.
