The "make font size of address bar bigger add-on worked until It upgraded itself - now it doesn't work

THIS IS REALLY BAD. The stupid thing updated itself and screwed itself completely. I HATE UPDATES.

The add on called MAKE ADDRESS BAR FONT SIZE BIGGER does not work any more since it offered an upgrade which I stupidly agreed to.

How do I get the fonts bigger again in the firefox address bar?

Version information says it is good through Firefox 3.5 through 10.*

I would find it hard to believe that it would be incompatible with other versions.

You don't really need an extension. You could do that with a style. But then the "Stylish" extension is large if you have only one style

What did that mean?

I thought I stated the problem VERY clearly. The font SIZE is now the original tiny size JUST LIKE BEFORE the FIRST TIME I installed the "Make address bar font size bigger" add-on

NOW AFTER THE ADD-ON SUGGESTED AN UPGRADE (AND I DID THE UPGRADE) IT IS SMALL AGAIN. THIS REALLY SUCKS. WHO NEEDS UPGRADES THAT SCREW THINGS UP ANYWAY?

Is there something I may change in the registry? It would be so much easier than asking questions that get wierd answers. No fuss no muss my ass.

You do not need an extension.
You can easily do that with code in userChrome.css


Add code to userChrome.css below the default @namespace line.

The customization files userChrome.css (interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the chrome folder in the user profile folder.


@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */

#urlbar *, #search-container *, #FindToolbar * { font-size:11pt!important; }

#urlbar .textbox-input-box,
#search-container,
#FindToolbar .textbox-input-box { font-size:11pt!important; font-family:"DejaVu Sans Mono"; }
