r0bc: you're using my previous tab progress line userstyle, upgrade.

Is this meant to only work on inactive tabs? How would I alter this to also show on the current tab?

The current tab's progress is shown on the URLbar (requires Fission I think) and thus it's redundant to put it on the tab, the mockups show that the active tab doesn't have the bar

KriLL3, I took the screenshot AFTER upgrading... why do you say so?

The current tab has the progressbar under the urlbar as in one of the previous mockups, while all the other tabs have it on the top of the tab itself. To have both I used a tweaked style originating from somebody who posted the code on SpewBoy's DeviantArt page in addition to KriLL3's style.

The one updated Firefox 4.0 preview image that I saw had no indication to which version of loading bar the current tab used. [The active tab has a Google search for "example" already loaded.]

But why I asked is because I don't have Fission installed anymore so I will dig into your userstyle and figure it out. I notice the loading bar also disappears on mouseover, part of the userstyle, too, I'd imagine?

Remove:

.tabbrowser-tabs .tabbrowser-tab[selected="true"] .tab-progress, .tabbrowser-tabs .tabbrowser-tab[showbutton="on"] .tab-progress
{
display: none !important;
}

Fixed that, I use that personally since I have TMP set to switch tabs on mouse-over, and it was glitchy until I hid them on hover, removed it from the userstyle since that's not a common usage scenario, the inclusion was an error on my part.

Compare your screenshot with the preview I showed, you're not using the new one, the new one replaces the old one, uninstall the old one.

Of course you were right, Stylish said it had upgraded the style but it hadn't ;) I must say I liked more the previous, with the "big glow"... in the mockup it seems to me that there's anyway "more glow" than your current rendition, though clearly much less than in the previous... probably an "in-between" version would do.

My home button addon acts just like the home toolbar button. You can single click to open in the current tab or middle click to open in a new tab. The page and tools are just extra toolbar buttons. They do not interfere with Personal Menu at all. I created it so I could have almost 1:1 look with the original mockups.

I wouldn't try to hide Bookmarks Toolbar from my tools menu, for some reason it seems to cause some problems with glasser enabled. Well download it and tell me if it works well for you. Its very much a work in progress though.

If you have tabs on top you need this extra code:

.home-tab-button {
margin-bottom: -4px !important;}

I've installed both but it didn't work, nothing different from the original !

I've made a tab progress line userstyle for the Strata40 0.4.3 theme in line with the most recent 3.7 mockup (which will most likely carry over in 4.0, but they're currently focusing on 3.7 since it's in the middle of "crunch time" while 4.0 is very "pie in the sky"):

Go get it: http://userstyles.org/styles/21240 :)

Is there any possibility to get this feature without the tab mix plus addon?

The page add-on should add two additional toolbar icons, you can add them under customize toolbar. You're not by chance using "Undo Closed Tabs Button" are you?

I have Tab Mix Plus installed, when i tried to disable it, the home button was on top just like your screenshot.

But when i enable Tab Mix Plus, the home button restored to it's original, so is there anyway to make the addon home on top work with tab mix plus ? :D

There should be other addons that do part of what TMP does and perhaps one that just adds progress bars on tabs but I don't know them, if you find one point it out to me and I can adapt the userstyle to make use of it.

I searched and I think this is an addon which can do this: https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/4930

It would be great if you can disable the other features of this addon with css if possible and can create an userstyle for this :)

Anyone know the fix to this?

To fix the Personal Menu text bug (unrelated to my theme) do one of the following:

* In Personal Menu's advanced options tab make sure "Show temporarily by pressing ALT key" is unchecked.

* Download and use Firefox 3.6 or 3.7 and uncheck "Hide menu bar" in Personal Menu's options tab. Right click on the menu bar to hide it and press ALT to show it by default.

Been using this for the last 24 hours, and I think it's a keeper! Anyone know how to keep the Home Tab showing while using TMP for the individual tab loading bars?

After a long period of hard work, we've brought to you StrataBuddy!

This addon includes three custom toolbar buttons, Tools, Page, and Bookmarks. It also allows you to customize Strata40 to make it resemble the 3.7 Mockups.

To access the customization options, go to the addons window and go to the addon's options. From there, you can choose what optional components you would like to use.

Features:

Accurate Firefox 3.7 Graphics, most of them Remade

Customization Features, including Alternative Back/Forward Buttons

New 3.7 Styled Reload/Stop Buttons

Animated Effects for Many Buttons

Page, Tools, and Bookmark Buttons

Aero Glass Effects

Tab Progress Line

Tabs on Top

Tab/Bookmark Background

and many more...

Note: This theme has graphics resembling SpewBoy's images, but most of SpewBoy's images have been recreated completely from scratch including Back/Forward (except for the arrows, which were borrowed from SpewBoy's Back/Forward), URLBar, IDBox, SearchBar, and Stop and Reload, which were created in his style toolbar buttons.

Yeah..nothing changes when i use stratabuddy

What happens exactly? You install it and nothing happens at all? First, make sure you restart Firefox after you install it. Then, double-check it is installed and running in your addons window. Then, right-click on the addon and go to options. Check in a few options, then restart Firefox.

If nothing happens after that, let me know.

Did you restart FF after you checked in some options?

Is Page, Tools, etc. missing? Try right clicking an area under the urlbar and clicking customize. Then, drag on the new Page, Tools, Reload, and Stop buttons onto your toolbar.

Glad I could help :).

I had to upload Home separately from StrataBuddy, so it wasn't ready at the same time. I am going to update the theme's description with a link to the home addon in a few minutes.

    • EU says Meta must restore rival chatbots' access to WhatsApp by Hamid Ganji The European Commission has ordered Meta to restore third-party AI chatbots’ access to WhatsApp after the tech giant decided to block them from operating on the popular messaging platform. After Meta banned rival AI chatbots from operating on WhatsApp, the European Commission launched an antitrust investigation to determine whether the company had abused its market dominance. As a result of Meta’s decision, third-party AI chatbots, including Microsoft’s Copilot and OpenAI’s ChatGPT, were prevented from operating on WhatsApp. At the time, Meta said it wanted to reserve the WhatsApp Business API for other types of businesses and did not allow rival chatbots to use it. This effectively prevented the WhatsApp ecosystem from being used to distribute rival chatbot services. However, the European Commission has now announced an interim measures decision requiring Meta to restore access to WhatsApp for rival general-purpose AI assistants on the same terms and conditions as before October 15, 2025. The Commission has also asked Meta to maintain that access until the antitrust investigation is concluded. The Commission argues that Meta has used its dominant market position to prevent rival AI chatbots from accessing the WhatsApp Business API. While Meta allowed rival services to return to WhatsApp by paying a fee, the European Commission still considers that arrangement to be a de facto access ban. According to EU antitrust chief Teresa Ribera, the fees introduced by Meta are so high that using WhatsApp is no longer economically sustainable for competitors. “It seems that Meta expects to leverage the vast reach and likely dominance of WhatsApp to benefit its own AI assistant and to foreclose rivals,” Ribera said. “We cannot let large digital incumbents leverage their dominance of the past to dictate who in Europe gets to compete and who gets to innovate in AI.”

    • Microsoft AI boss no longer believes that AI will replace human workers by David Uzondu Mustafa Suleyman, the head of Microsoft AI, recently took back his statements concerning white-collar jobs that he gave to the Financial Times in an interview made back in February, where he claimed that AI would replace office workers within 12 to 18 months. On Monday's episode of The Verge's Decoder, Suleyman recast the technology as more like a helpmate than a tool designed to take over your job. He explained that smaller office duties will "increasingly become digitized, automated" as people generate more digital materials. During the discussion, Suleyman emphasized a "very important distinction" between "tasks" and "jobs" to clarify his previous claims. He argued that his earlier comments only referred to individual actions that people perform at their desks. Suleyman used to work for DeepMind, the research lab he co-founded in 2010 alongside Demis Hassabis and Shane Legg, before he left in 2022 to establish Inflection AI and build an empathetic digital assistant. Microsoft hired him in March 2024 to lead its newly formed "Microsoft AI" division, placing him in charge of consumer products like Copilot, Bing, and Edge. His February comments also detailed plans for Microsoft to achieve self-sufficiency with a $140 billion infrastructure budget to train frontier models, predicting that creating a customized AI will soon feel like creating a podcast or a new blog: The 41-year-old is not the only AI executive who's softened his "AI will replace you" stance. OpenAI's CEO, Sam Altman, last month used X to push back against employment panic by arguing that his startup builds tools to assist humans rather than build replacements. He had previously garnered backlash by suggesting that many modern office roles that AI might replace did not qualify as "real work" in the first place, at least when you compare desk jobs to physical, historical labor like farming.
