Firefox used to have an option on the navigation bar next to the back/forward buttons that showed navigation history - I could go back ten screens w/o hitting the back button ten times. Does the new version have this feature? If so, how do I enable it?

It was a triangle button that provided a drop-down menu of my most recent navigation history within a site. Very convenient, esp for slide shows if I wanted to return to a slide that was 10-12 slides back.

Chosen solution

Use one of these methods to open the tab history list:

  • Right click on the Back or Forward button
  • Hold down the left mouse button on the enabled Back or Forward button until the list opens

Firefox 4 uses a combined Stop/Reload/Go button that is positioned at the right end of the location bar.
During the page load process it shows as a Stop button and after the loading has finished the button is changed to a Reload button.
If you type in the location bar then that button becomes a Go button.
You can middle-click that Reload button to duplicate the current tab to a new tab.

I don't think you understood the question, but thanks for taking the time to respond.

Firefox still has this feature, you just click and hold the back button or the forward button, depending on whether you want to go back or forward.
