Hello,

is there a way to make Firefox show the domain of websites in its window title, without resorting to addons?

For instance, the homepage of Google makes the window title of Firefox be "Google - Mozilla Firefox". I'd like such title to be "Google - http://www.google.com - Mozilla Firefox", or something like that.

Thanks.

Why not ensure the navigation toolbar is displayed.

  • View -> Toolbars -> Navigation Toolbar

That shows the address, and the display may be modified slightly using preferences.

Thank you. The Navigation Toolbar is displayed already. I need the domain in the window title because I need to check in a reliable manner from another application what webpage Firefox is displaying. Showing the URL in the window title instead of the domain would be a suitable alternative.
