Icon background in the Tab Bar

I have placed a 'Close All Tabs' button in the Tab Bar.
I'd like it to have the same background as the default 'New Tab' gray tab-shaped background.
Do I have to change the following code in the xul file?
toolbarpalette id="BrowserToolbarPalette"
class="toolbarbutton-1"
Thank you.

''My question is not specific to a certain button. If you drag any button from the Toolbar to the Tab Bar, you could see the difference between the 'New Tab' and that button.''
I see, yes, other buttons do not have the appearance of being a tab. When the new tab button is the first button after the tabs, it is moved into the tabs. I don't think there is a simple way to do this with other buttons. I won't rule out a complicated way to do it. :-)

All of a sudden I can no longer open a new tab using either the icon on the tab bar, the keyboard short cut or the File menu option. I can open a new tab ONLY by clicking on a bookmark or link.

How do I get a Vista 64 bit XP machine to show a "+" icon on the tab bar to "Open a new tab" and the "Open a new tab" icon on the far right of the Bookmarks tool bar?

I have Firefox 4.0.1 installed on two laptops, one with Windows Vista, 64 bit and the other with Windows XP. Both machines have the "Open a new tab" icon on the far right of the Bookmarks tool bar. The XP machine also has a + icon on the tab bar to "Open a new tab" while the Vista machine does not have that + icon. I like using that; is there any way to get it on the Vista machine?

After weeks of trying, I stumbled on the solution:
# Right-click on an empty section of the Tab Strip, select Customize... and the Customize Toolbar window will open.
# At the bottom of the Customize Toolbar window, there are additional options for changing the appearance of the icons in your toolbars. From the Show drop-down menu, you can choose what to display in the toolbars — Icons, Text, or Icons and Text together. By default, Firefox just shows Icons.
# Select Icons and Text
# When you are finished making changes, click Done to close the Customize Toolbar window.

Odd icon or symbol is displayed in the tab bar.

In FF 4, I have a weird little symbol (like a blue 'Q' with a long straight tail) that shows up in the tab bar. If I open enough tabs, it is right at the break between the third and fourth tab.It is definitely coming from FF, as it follows the window if I drag it around. Closing and relaunching FF will sometimes removes it, but it comes back. I can't click it or select it and I can't tie its appearance to any particular site or other app open at the same time.

Hi AJ,
Thanks for the link.
None of the solutions mentioned in it could solve the issue.
The issue is indeed in IE7 and IE8.
Problem : I cannt tell my user not to USE IEs.
My Requirement.
I want to redirect to the same page on click of button B.(when A is disabled and then B remains enabled)
A) I tried using ResetButton also but this issue still remains.
B) I got it done using a Link type item but user wants it as a Button.
More over the link doesnot always gives me the desired result or (rather soemtimes gives me stale data as well)
Thanks,

On Firefox 4, how can I put one "new tab" on the "tab bar" (The + sign) and one next to the "back/forward" buttons (as in FF 3.6)?

On Firefox 4, how can I put one "new tab" on the "tab bar" (The + sign) and one next to the "back/forward" buttons (as in FF 3.6)?
In my current Firefox, the "new tab" icon/item from the "customize" pop-up window menu of items is placed next to my home, back, forward buttons near the top-left of my header (Button 1 for "new tab"). Then, the tab bar automatically come with a small tab (with a + sign) to the right of your last tab opened (so you click on + and a new tab opens. Button 2 for "new tab"). I like to have this "new tab" button twice (as a + mini tab, and next to my "home icon".
When I upgraded to Firefox 4, I seemed to be only able to "customize" or use the "new tab" in one place. Either as an icon next to home button, or as a "+ minitab", but NOT both.
What can I do to put this button in Firefox 4 on BOTH places???
Your help is really appreciated. I want to upgrade, but I want my buttons on both places...
I upgraded to FF 4, but downgraded again just because this feature... that's just me of coarse :-)

How do I change the color of the area next to the Tab Bar

I've got Firefox 8.0, and ever since they went to the new layout I've had problems with the area at the right of the Tab Bar. When FF is maximized, the buttons up there ( > + ▼ X ) are black on a dark blue background, and I almost can't see them - so I never use it maximized.
How do I change the color, maybe back to the colors it uses when not maximized?

I got used to the tabs at the top -- and kinda prefer that look, but I'll try this for a while.
Is there any way to change the color of either the buttons or the background?
Thanks.

Why does the tab bar on my iPad 2 disappear when I swipe down? How can I lock it in place?

Why does the tab bar on my iPad 2 using IO8 disappear when I swip down? Its annoying. I have to tap the top of the screen to view my open tabs.
why did Apple switch the position of the bookmarks icon and the favorites icon. Now I tap the wrong one.

There isn't a setting to stop the tab bar automatically hiding (or I haven't found one), and as to why the icons were moved I don't think that Apple have said. If you want to leave feedback for Apple then you can do so here : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

I get a strange behavior of the tab bar and of the location bar in Firefox 29.0 for Mac.

I have just installed Firefox 29.0 for Mac.
I get a strange behavior of the tab bar and of the location bar with this new version.
Instead of the location bar, I get two rows of symbols. And it's impossible to write anything in the location bar.
(I'd like to add a screenshot, but I cannot find a way to do it.)

Thank you for your tip.
I found the culprit: it was an extension called RSS Icon 1.0.6.
I removed it and now Firefox 29.0 is working perfectly.
Now I'll have to find a replacement for that extension.
Thank you once again. Your tip was essential.

I'd like to use Fox Tab exclusively and not have the tab bar at all. Is this possible?

This isn't so much a problem as a request for information. Like the topic says, I want Firefox to not show the tab bar at all, but still retain the tab function so that I can open tabs and view them with Fox Tab.

Fox Tab wasn't what I had the problem with, I was simply trying to provide background information that could possibly help someone answer me. fortunately, it worked. indirectly. edmeister, your tip led me to Fox Tab's options, where I found a check box next to "Hide tab bar."

Hide the tab bar

Mozilla is awesome, but FF23 has me greatly annoyed! They deleted some of the most useful Firefox features around (Looking at you Browse By Name)
Hiding the tab bar is no longer controllable, I love my screen space, but please make the tab bar vanish if I don't need it. Do I need an add-on for this now? (ugh!)
And now I can't even send feedback on Input- https://input.mozilla.org because it doesn't give me an option to register a persona account!!!
I need to give Mozilla a Tennessee talking to about this snafu. What's the email address for them?

Not bad? Where are the icons for the extensions? Where is the bookmarks toolbar? Where is the titlebar? No add-ons bar any more. It looks horrible!

How do I restore the "close tab" button to the END of the tab bar, WITHOUT USING AN ADDON

Up until FF31, I used to have the following setting configured which moved the little 'X' button that closed tabs off of the tabs themselvs and onto the far right of the tab bar.
browser.tabs.closeButtons; User Set; Integer; 3
No, this no longer works. It has still moved the close buttons back to the tab buttons. Until I can figure out how to fix this, I will be moving back to a previous version. I can't for the life of me see why this feature was removed, other than Mozilla's seemingly arrogant insistence that it knows what people want better than they do.
I was since told by someone that I can use an addon to fix it, yet the problem is THEY DO NOT WORK. The addons that supposedly solve this all have intermittent failures where they don't load correctly, leave random dead tabs open, and in one case it even seemed to open new tabs when I tried to close one.
It's absolutely inexcusable that the dev team is so arrogant to take away a feature that has fundamentally no impact on the rest of the browser, other than, as I said before, they THINK they know what we want better than we do. It's no small wonder that FF is losing market share. The only thing keeping me on board was really this function, as I prefer this layout, and if it's gone, I see no reason to stick with FF over others.

unfortunately it is not possible to restore the close button to have only one (customizable) close button on the Tab bar without using an extension.
The extension is necessary because you need to create a new toolbar button and bind the proper code to it to make the button act as a tab close button (command: BrowserCloseTabOrWindow()).

Why is it that when I set the preference to always show the tab bar, it refuses to stay checked after I quit Firefox and restart it?

Using Mac OSX10.6.7 and FF 4.0.1, I'm having a problem with the preference to always show the tab bar. I want it to always show. I check this in the Preferences under the "tab" window, and everything is fine until I quit FF and when I restart FF the tab bar is gone again. I go into preferences, and that option is now unchecked. How can I fix this so that my preference is saved?

That hasn't helped the last ten times I tried. I posted before. I deleted the preferences file, I tried changing the preferences file, I went into about:config and changed the autoHide preference there. No dice. Firefox is not saving my preference for that one thing.

How can i change the tab bar from opening a new tab when single clicked to open one only when double clicked?

Out of habbit, i double click the tab bar and it opens 1 tab. however in the new beta, it opens 2.
Is there anyway to change this so single clicks dont open new tabs on the tab bar?

I don't have multiple tab bars and haven't installed anything to try and get them.
I re-read what I wrote earlier and realised it's not worded clearly when I said: If I have more than a single tab bar of tabs open
I meant: When I have so many tabs open that they won't all fit into the tab bar at once

How do I get the tab bar at the bottom of the screen (right above the task bar) WITHOUT Tab Mix Plus?

''locking - please stick with your original thread about this problem - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/934590''
I like having the tab bar at the bottom of the screen; I use the task bar AT THE BOTTOM to switch between programs, so I want the the tab bar AT THE BOTTOM to switch between web pages. The only way I've found to get the tab bar at the bottom of the screen is the extension Tab Mix Plus. I used it for a long time, and it worked great.
Unfortunately, when I recently updated to Firefox 14.0.1, I encountered an error: I could no longer middle-click on a link to open it in a new tab (which I do ALL the time). After some troubleshooting, I found that it was being caused by some incompatibility between Firefox 14.0.1 and Tab Mix Plus; upon removing Tab Mix Plus, my middle-clicking was back to normal.
But without Tab Mix Plus, I'm back to having the tab bar at the top of the screen. I've searched and searched, and I can't find anything besides Tab Mix Plus that will let me put the tab bar at the bottom of the screen. I've found tons of stuff about the option "tabs on top", but that has to do with putting the tab bar above/below the navigation bar--it's still at the top of the SCREEN either way.
What can I do?

Reset the pref layout.scrollbar.side to '0' or set to '2' to place the scroll bar at the default right side.
See:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/layout.scrollbar.side
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/about%3Aconfig
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

How do I open new tabs at the end of the tab bar?

Recently switched over from Internet Explorer. One of things I liked about IE was if I adjusted some of the tabbed browsing settings, whenever I opened a link in a new tab, it opened it at the very end of the tab bar. No tab grouping, no opening next to the current tab. Seems like a pretty simple thing, but I just can't figure out how to set that up in Firefox.
Any suggestions on how to take care of that? Thanks!

You can set the pref browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent to false on the about:config page.
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
*Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
*Preferences that have been modified show as bold (user set).
*Preferences can be reset to the default via the right-click context menu if they are user set
*Preferences can be changed via the right-click context menu: Modify (String or Integer) or Toggle (Boolean)
