How can I get my search box back and seperate from my url bar?
This "awesomebar" is terrible - I no longer get Google suggestions, and it's just not user friendly to have to press the tab key every time I want to search (and never be able to search in the tab I'm done with - instead Firefox automatically opens a new one for me).
Is there any way to get my old search bar back? I'm considering switching to Chrome as a result.
Thanks, Courtney

You can modify the pref keyword.URL on the about:config page to use Google's "I'm Feeling Lucky" or Google's "Browse By Name".
- Google "I'm Feeling Lucky": http://www.google.com/search?btnI=I%27m+Feeling+Lucky&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=
- Google "Browse by Name": http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=
In the location bar, use the special characters listed here to modify your searches: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Location_Bar_search
