Firefox doesn't seem to give me the ability to enter a new URL in the new tab window I open

When I open a new Firefox tab there doesn't appear to be a way to enter a URL for the website I want to go to. I guess my question is: Where do you enter the URL for the website you want to access? Thanks, Suzanne

If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key, that should make the menu bar appear.

Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"

  • If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
  • If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
  • If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up.
