Firefox 3.5 tweaks

Cool new Firefox is out and we all love it. I had only two issues with new features.

1. Hide the +Button in the tabbar.

I don’t need this superflous button to open a new tab. I am using the keyboard shortcut (mac: cmd+t). To disable the button put this in your userChrome.css:

.tabs-newtab-button {display: none;}

The userChrome.css is located in your profile dir under the chrome subdir (mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles/random_profile_name/chrome). If there is no file then copy and rename the userChrome-example.css.

2. Disable Tab tearing

I used to drag the actual tab onto the desktop to create a shortcut. Now I can drag the actual tab out and create a window…

Just install this weirdly named extension and activate it in the prefs: bug489729
