Every time I open FF , I lose my status bar.

Every time I open FF , I lose my status bar.

Chosen solution

The Status Bar is no longer present in Firefox 4 versions and replaced by the Add-ons Bar (View > Toolbars > [X] Add-on Bar) that extensions can use.

You can install the Status-4-Evar extension to regain some functionality from previous Firefox versions that was lost with the removal of the Status bar.

Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout" after you have installed the Status-4-Evar extension and drag the items (Status Text, Progress Meter, Download Status) upon the Add-ons Bar (View > Toolbars > [X] Add-on Bar)

Thank you. Well done and I am very impressed!

Now if you could answer the following 2 questions I'd be very grateful:

1. Problem with Tab Mix Plus Tab Mix Plus v0.3.8.5: Why can I no longer scroll to select tabs from close tab button on extreme right side of tab bar?

2. When is the market going to go into a long stable bull phase--JOKE, JOKE.

Thanks again, ralphie

If you have problems with TMP then it is best to ask advice on the TMP forum

Problem with TMP forum: Won't allow questions unless you register and from "Tab Mix Plus Forum Index -> News" http://tmp.garyr.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10452

appears they are having a spam problem: 1."Looks like a spammer has access to your usernames." 2."Same here. You need to button up the forum. You're running an old, insecure version of phpBB that is virtually open to anyone who wants to do that.

 Jim"

3. etc

I don't mind registering, but not to open myself up to spam.

Thanks anyway, ralphgold
