How do I change the tab background color in Firefox 4?
I just upgraded to Firefox 4. Tabs are now fine black font on dark grey background -- very hard to read. How do I change the tab background color?
I have searched and the closest I can come is some instructions for modifying .css files, and it is not clear that those instructions will impact the tab background color.
Thanks in advance for your help.

You could use an add-on, such as Tab Mix Plus, which is working fine for me on firefox 4.
Thanks, iPodize, this is an excellent solution and I will definitely use it if no free alternatives surface.

Here is the address of that question and answer:

I like the solution recommended there.
Added information - after several days experience, I notice that some tabs occasionally revert to the original dark grey. So I am still looking for a better solution, ideally within Firefox rather than via add on. This seems like a basic setting for the browser that should be easy to change, rather than something so complex that I need an add on to change it. Or just build it without such a dark grey background to begin with and I would not need to change it.
