Stop and refresh buttons (one will disappear while the other is active). I have found numerous websites that just don't want to load on the first try, now I am unable to refresh it (usually in a new tab) because the button disappears. BTW 255 limit is BS.

Try using F5 to reload the page from the server.

You can try to press the ESC key to stop loading the page if you see the Stop button instead of the Reload button. You can also reload the page via F5 or Ctrl + F5 (cache bypass).

Firefox 4.0 has a combined Reload and Stop and Go button that appears at the right end of the location bar.

To restore the Firefox 3 appearance you can use these steps:

  • Open the "View > Toolbars > Customize" window to move the Stop and Reload button out of the location bar.
  • Move the Reload and Stop buttons to their previous position at the left side of the location bar.
  • Set the order to "Reload - Stop" to get a combined "Reload/Stop" button.
  • Set the order to "Stop - Reload" or separate them otherwise to get two distinct buttons.
