I want to restore the drop down list with back and forward buttons (lists the last ten or so pages visited)

Previous versions had a little drop down list of the past 10 or so pages visited next to the back and forward buttons. I used that a lot and really miss it. Can I get it back? Thanks.

Oh, never mind... sometimes you DO have to read the directions, duh...

But, for anyone else who doesn't read the directions (Hello, sisters and brothers):

Just click and hold the back button and the little menu drops right down.  ;-)

The arrow to open the tab history of the Back and Forward buttons has been removed in Firefox 4 and later.

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

You can look at this extension:

Sorry. Doesn't work. Guess I'll quit using Firefox until this is fixed.

That add-on only works if you are using graphic buttons. I use plain text option and the add-on does not have a text "v" arrow in that mode, it just displays a blank space. :-(
