Can one add an item to the bookmarks toolbar bookmarks menu?
Is there any way to add "Bookmark All Tabs" to the bookmark menu in the bookmarks toolbar? What would I put into the userChrome.css file?
Chosen solution
It was removed but the tab context menu has it, and if you add both of these extensions and make a selection of tabs you will probably have exactly what you want from your menu. If you install "Multiple Tab Handler" already mentioned and you install "Add Bookmark to here2" you will have a very workable combination.

I thought that was on the tab context menu, but it's not on my Firefox 6.0.2. But I would want to make a selection of tabs and that is available if you install the Multiple Tab Handler extension from the tab context menu.
With Multiple Tab Handler, right-click on the tab to bring up the tab context menu then choose "Bookmark selected tabs to a new folder". It provides lots of features for handling multiple tabs: pinning a selection of tabs (app-tabs), pasting titles & urls in various formats. Closing selected tabs, or all tabs to the right/left. Closing tabs to the right is especially useful if using app-tabs.

If you want to test out the functionality of anything involving Tab use this test page. (the strange name is derived from my keyword shortcut to the page is "_")
If this solves your problem please mark as solved, once sure.

The menu I mean is on the bookmarks toolbar near the right end. This is in Mac Firefox, but I thought that Windows Firefox 6 had that available to use as well.

Thanks. I can use the item in the tab context menu. I did not see it there because I rarely use that menu.
Would you mark as solved, the answer above that helped you solve.
Here is an alternate solution and reasons for changes
- "Ctrl+Shift+D" Bookmark All Tabs (Keyboard Shortcut (big list)
- Bug 607227 – Hide menu Bookmarks > "Bookmark all Tabs" unless the user invokes the menu using the keyboard
- Bug 588011 – "Bookmark All Tabs" should ignore App Tabs; hide the "Bookmark All Tabs" menu item unless the user invokes the menu using the keyboard
- Bug 587295 – Remove "Bookmark This Tab" from the tabs context menu
- Bug 626825 – Hide redundant menu commands unless the user invokes the menu using the keyboard (make use of the openedWithKey attribute)
