I used to use three finger swipe (left or right) on a macbook track-pad to navigate forward and backward in history. I like this feature very much as it saves a lot of time in my workflow, and was the deciding factor for me to use firefox over other browsers (as they did not offer this feature). I have upgraded to Mac OSX Lion and now this feature doesn't work. Is it possible to enable this within firefox settings or mac system preferences, or am I doomed to use the mouse to navigate to the top bar and click the back or forward button?

I immediately noticed this as well when I downloaded Lion and was like "crap" cause I really got used to that feature... so I googled it and yes, you can restore it.
