Got reply on how 2 enarlge FIREFOX bookmrk toolbar. Can NE1 translate?
Edited on Thu Dec-23-04 12:41 PM by henslee
A GUY FROM NETHERLANDS RESPONDED:

Put this in your userchrome.css:

Code:
/* Multi-row bookmarks toolbar */
#bookmarks-ptf {display:block}
#bookmarks-ptf toolbarseparator {display:inline}

(I HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO DO THIS. (on edit) I DID DOWNLOAD WEB DEVELOPER EXTENSION AND I DO HAVE A CSS HEADING BUT NOT SURE HOW TO USE IT)

HERE IS LINK TO MY QUESTION AND THE ANSWER PAGE

1. Search for the .css file on your computer
A .css file is a script file that is used in the Html coding to mak it more efficient. Open it up to edit it and add those lines into it. Looks like it will split your toolbar for another bookmark menu.

4. I found the file on mine
It was saved as userchrome-example.css. It tells you in the file where to save it to. Search for it and add the lines of code that were given to you. This was in my .css file. I opened it with notebook.

/*
* Edit this file and copy it as userChrome.css into your
* profile-directory/chrome/
*/

/*
* This file can be used to customize the look of Mozilla's user interface
* You should consider using !important on rules which you want to
* override default settings.
*/

8. I just did a *.css search
It is not in the registry, just a file. My version is 1.0. I will mail my copy to you, that might work better.

2. I can tell you this about that :)
userchrome.css is a configuration file for Firefox.

Find it on your hard drive.
Save a backup copy BEFORE changing.
Edit it with a text editor (NotePad for example)
Copy and paste those lines into the file in your text editor.
Save the file with the same name; userchrome.css
Close then reopen Firefox for changes to take effect.

I'll try it first if you'd like.
