in dropdown url box, only show http addr, not he description of the website
I am looking for a way to eliminate the website header information in the drop down url box. For example, the drop down box displays as follows:
Winchester Star http://www.winchesterstar.com
CNN.com - Breaking News; World, U.S., Weather blah, blah, blah http://www.cnn.com
and so on.
I would like just the lines that start with "http" to show up, not the top line of information for each site. Is this possible.
Thanks and regards, George

You can use Old Location Bar extension with your current version of Firefox:
Be aware that Firefox 4 will be released soon and as of right now Old Location Bar extension is not compatible with Firefox 4beta or Release Candidate. It will be left to the developer to make it compatible if the developer wishes to do so.
