Firefox... taming the beast !

Hi Ghot, you can get rid of the star with this code:

#urlbar #star-button-box
{
display:none !important;
}

Bo

I "think" I can also turn that off with something already in userChrome.css

I'm still trying to find it.

Anak, use that line, or you can copy and paste the code below in your personal css.



@-moz-document url(chrome://browser/content/browser.xul), url(chrome://browser/content/browser.xhtml) {


}

/* TABS: on bottom */

@import "./tabs_below_navigation_toolbar.css";

*|*:root {
--menubar-height: 36px;
--bookmarkbar-height: 1px;
--tabbar-top: calc(var(--menubar-height) + var(--bookmarkbar-height) + var(--tab-min-height) + 8px); /*89+*/
}

#TabsToolbar {
display: block !important;
position: absolute !important;
top: 67px !important;
width: 100vw !important;
}

#tabbrowser-tabs {
width: 100vw !important;
}
#main-window:not([chromehidden*="toolbar"]) #navigator-toolbox {padding-bottom: var(--tab-min-height) !important;}


If that code doesn't work well, try this one instead:


@-moz-document url(chrome://browser/content/browser.xul), url(chrome://browser/content/browser.xhtml) {


}

/* TABS: on bottom */

@import "./tabs_below_navigation_toolbar.css";

*|*:root {
--menubar-height: 32px;
--bookmarkbar-height: 1px;
--tabbar-top: calc(var(--menubar-height) + var(--bookmarkbar-height) + var(--tab-min-height) + 8px); /*89+*/
}

#TabsToolbar {
display: block !important;
position: absolute !important;
top: var(--tabbar-top) !important;
width: 100vw !important;
}

#tabbrowser-tabs {
width: 100vw !important;
}
#main-window:not([chromehidden*="toolbar"]) #navigator-toolbox {padding-bottom: var(--tab-min-height) !important;}

Yeah.... well it says you use a desktop, but I bet yer one o' them cottin' pickin' smart fone, users.

I am sure it is in there. I like the star but I ll help you look for it.

Bo

I'm gonna try Edit > Find starbutton or star-button

I did find this early, but it doesn't seem to work. ??

There are a few that have to do with the star. So, you could try a few at a time and see what happens.

Or, create a new css file and name it "my_userChrome", and put this new file inside the chrome folder together with Ari's five files. Ari's file is designed to import your personal css.

So, you can use both at the same time, Ari's file and yours.

In your personal css, copy and paste:

@-moz-document url(chrome://browser/content/browser.xul), url(chrome://browser/content/browser.xhtml) {

#urlbar #star-button-box
{
display:none !important;
}



And the star will disappear.

Bo

I realize that. I'm just trying to keep it down to just the stock userChrome.css

I mean...it's already gettin' to be a pain. Mozilla could have just made a CSS file, themselves with switches. :/

Mozilla is making things tough. I pay a high price for Not using Multiprocess. There are a few functions in the browser that are broken, only because I disable MP. But at least we have css. Doing what I wrote, takes you less than a minute.

Make a copy of Aris userchrome file, and paste it in the Desktop, rename it and copy and paste the code I wrote, after you put the new css file in the chrome folder, when you reopen Firefox, the star will be gone. Doing this takes a lot less time than testing every option in Ari's css that has to do with the star.

You're 100% right, but ya gotta draw the line somewhere.
Now if you could figure out how to make it a one line thing like in Aris' CSS file...that would be OK.

He does provide the source code also.



I learned and forgot most of about 4-5 coding languages in my time.
I really don't want to start that up again. :/



/edit

Stuff like this really offends my sensibilities. Aka... more than one horizontal line, and those curly brackets.
That's just going too far IMO.

Code:

#urlbar #star-button-box
{
display:none !important;
}

I mean.. what ever happened to simple coding like...

For x=1 to 10
Print "Hello world"
next x
