Hello, in order to minimize space using firefox 4, I have placed everything so that tabs are right on top with the following underneath: back/forward webpage buttons, url bar, search bar and bookmarks toolbar. Because I have a lot of bookmarks, I resize the url and search bars to take up most of the room and blank the name of my bookmarks to make them icons so that I can fit the ones I need. The problem is that every single time I reopen firefox it doesnt remeber for someone reason that I made longer the url and search bars, and has the bookmarkstake priority, shrinking the search and url bars to a tiny level so I barely cant even see what Im typing. Please help? I need firefox to remeber the size I made the url and search bars and not to "default" these sizes every time

ahh no worries, I just solved it by adding the bookmarks button and moving all bookmarks from the bookmarks toolbar into there
