Great work Malcolm.
Now I have to remember where I had the reload and home buttons before.

a quick follow up.

has a picture of FF V3.6

Buttons left to right are:
left, right, down, reload, stop, home, then the address box.

Perhaps it was because I added the down button patch, but I wasn't able to place stop in the same position, but I was
able to add it successfully between home and the address box.

And bookmarks was disappearing over on the right hand side, so I tried shifting it left, but no go, so I then added
another button to the left of the address box.

So it is almost identical to V3.6 now. Well as close as one can get I thinketh.

Cheers Don...

Personally I find no problem with it, my main problem with FF4 is that
they have moved the reload button over to the right, and it is a long
way to drive the trackball or touchpad.

You can move it. Right click on the buttons bar, choose customise, and
then while holding the left mouse button down drag the offending
button to where you prefer it. Then click 'Done'

Good stuff, now I have reload, home and print over on the left like I
used to have them, and I don't mind right clicking the back button in
the least.

===================

I never had a crash with FF4 until this afternoon. I went to the Oanda
foreign exchange web site to print off a table of exchange rates for my
expenses on a recent trip to the US. The page came up OK, but when I
tried to print it, FF crashed. It also crashed on page preview. Thinking
it may be a W7 thing or a function of the work VPN/network, I tried it
on my EEEPC under XP. Exactly the same result. I had to use IE in the
end, that worked OK.
