how do i know if a page is bookmarked
When I bookmark a page, I see the star turns blue; however, when I return to that page, how can I tell if the page has been bookmarked before.
Before the update, there would be a yellow star on the address bar. That is no longer available.
Thank you for your assistance.

The star on the Navigation Toolbar is highlighted blue when you are on a tab that is bookmarked.
In current Firefox releases (29 and later), that have have the Australis user interface, the orange Firefox menu button has been replaced by the three-bar Firefox Menu button at the far right end of the Navigation Toolbar and this button is always visible, whether you have the menu bar visible or hidden
A consequence of this location is that you no longer can hide the Navigation Toolbar
- There is a star like button to the right end of the search bar on the Navigation Toolbar to bookmark the current web page and a "Show your bookmarks" button next to it to open the Bookmarks in a drop down menu.
You can find "Show All Bookmarks" to open the Bookmarks Manager (Library) at the bottom of this drop-down list. - It is still possible to have the menu bar visible via the right-click context menu on the toolbars to have menus like the Bookmarks menu
If you bookmark a page then "Bookmark This Page" in the Bookmarks menu changes to "Edit This Bookmark"
