Is it possible to have the autohide bookmarks style without enabling the bookmarks toolbar? I want to make the bookmarks button always visible.

you could try this: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon//

Also, how do I use DOM Inspector to view the class/id of the context menu or menu entries?

Also, for things like the window that comes up with Alt, Tools, Options.

Check in chrome://browser/content/browser.xul. Search by tag for for menu, meunupopup, or menuitem or by attribute if one is known (the label would be the most obvious one.). Most context menus are descendants of #mainPopupSet, toolbar menus are usually a descendant of the toolbar.

Here's an example where I searched for the "Undo" menuitem in the main context menu:

How would I change these toolbar icons? I tried some scripts from userstyles but none worked?

They are GreaseMonkey & Master Password.

I don't use Master Password, so I don't know its ID, but here's GM(v.2011.04.13.nightly). You would probably be able to do MP the same way once you have its ID. :

#greasemonkey-tbb {
    list-style-image: url("PATH TO IMAGE or DATA/URI") !important;
    -moz-image-region: auto !important;
}

This is with reference to Fx4 and the Aurora build on WinXP SP3 and the latest (1.1.2b1) and previous version of Stylish.

The default (starting size) of stylish.sqlite is 160 KB even though it is empty. We go about adding, editing and deleting styles. At some point, it then jumps to 224 KB. To bring it back down, I copy the styles, just a few in my case, to text files and uninstall them from Stylish (but the size of stylish.sqlite still remains at 224 KB). I go into my profile and delete the 224 KB, but now empty, stylish.sqlite, restart Fx, and see a new 160 KB stylish.sqlite. I then bring back my styles from the text files and the size is still 160 KB but I guess that the "entropy", for want of a better word, has been reduced a bit. While regularly backing up the profile folder is a must in any case, I feel (without any scientific proof) that this exercise improves the "quality" of the stylish.sqlite file.

as a side note, windows users can actually use this method to vacuum all the sqlite DBs in your Fx profile folder(or any folder):

Thanks this worked perfect! How would I find out the ID?

Then there's also CCleaner, a separate freeware program, that can vacuum both Firefox and Chrome databases and do a lot of other stuff.

I need help, please!

I want to have a slightly darker color instead of the light grey that is visible in the three panels in this image.

Specs: WinXP SP3, Aurora build, no theme, no personas, but a Stylish code is in use that gives part of the image the non-standard look.post-369494-0-76928400-1302852702.png

Thanks, I found the ID in the inspector but have a slight problem.

There is only one toolbar icon ID and there are 2 toolbar icons, one is red for disabled and the other is green for enabled.

The ID changes both the enabled and disabled icons to the same icon when I applied in stylish which makes it hard to see first glance if it's enabled or disabled.

Is there a way I can move the text in the url bar to the right by 2 or 3 pixels? It seems like the first letter of the url text is being partially cut off in my firefox and I have no idea what's causing it. It's not a huge problem but it's bugging the hell out of me. :wacko:

Edit: Actually, it seems that stratiform is causing it.

I think I got it kinda, sorta, the way I want with this:

dialog,
page,
pane,
panel,
prefs,
prefwindow *,
settings,
update,
window,
wizard
{
  -moz-appearance: none;
  background-color: #333 !important;
  color: #777 !important;
}

except for the fat borders that appear on the tabs in the last (Advanced) pane.

try these selectors:

red-

#mapa_toolbar_button[status="2"]

green-

#mapa_toolbar_button[status="1"]

This is what I'm seeing:

It looks like each tab and the panel itself has a fat grey border. There are also little vertical bars on either side of "Accessibility", "Browsing", etc that needn't be there.

Hey foxxyn8,

how exactly did you make those tabs have no border-radius and be so close to eachother like in this image:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/12843960/firefox_bookmarks.png

Also im trying to find a way to make this work but w/o success (though i've managed to do it properly for facebook since it doesnt have subdomains):

#main-window[stylish-url^="deviantart.com"] #urlbar{
  style;
}

if its:

#main-window[stylish-url^="http://www.deviantart.com"] #urlbar{

it works but only for that page, i need something that works on all deviantart.com domains/subdomains (cause we know how many subdomains that site has).

Sample of what it will look like once im done:

post-267886-0-34842400-1302923668.png

You can change "^=" to "*=" and that'll select any URL with "deviantart.com" in it.

lol i cant believe i didnt think about it, i should just quit webdesigning /facepalm (i will add the excuse of current time which is almost 7am :#).

Anyway, if anyone is interested to use the userstyle for that deviantArt url, feel free to ask

I didn't do that. I like my tabs with rounded corners, but whoever did it either created a new border image or completely remade the tabs with css

#main-window[stylish-url^="deviantart.com"] #urlbar{

post-267886-0-34842400-1302923668.png

why not use [stylish-domain] instead of [stylish-url]

Ok, thanks for the quick replies, guyz.

I didnt use it cause i didnt know it existed xD, i started working on stylish yesterday so im pretty new to this (mostly in finding stuff through DOM inspector and some stylish related options).

I've managed to remove the border-radius from the tabs but im having trouble shrinking the distance between tabs (i think its about 2pixels long for me, while in that screenshot its 1px).

Hey can someone help me to put a white line at the top of the navigation bar just under the black border just under the tabs.

I've got this so far, but I'm not expert in CSS lol.

#navigator-toolbox > toolbar:not(#toolbar-menubar):not(#TabsToolbar):not(:-moz-lwtheme):not(#PersonalToolbar) {
border: 2px solid transparent !important;
-moz-border-top-colors: rgb(40%,40%,40%) #F7FAFD !important;
-moz-border-left-colors:  rgb(40%,40%,40%) rgb(228,235,244) !important;
-moz-border-right-colors: rgb(40%,40%,40%) rgb(228,235,244) !important;
}

The problem with this is that I don't want the borders on the left and right of the nav bar. The nav bar slightly enlarges because of the extra borders which I don't want and the selected tab has the white line on it which I don't want.

Thanks.

#navigator-toolbox > toolbar:not(#toolbar-menubar):not(#TabsToolbar):not(:-moz-lwtheme):not(#PersonalToolbar) {
	border-top: 1px solid #fff !important;
}

Not sure if this is what you are looking for

Is there any way to change appmenu button height, I can make it higher without any problem, but I like to change change height from default to bit smaller one?

try this (adjust as desired) :

#appmenu-button { 
    max-height:10px !important; 
    font-size: smaller !important;
}

    • It's amazing that anyone still uses this bloated trash.
    • @Sayan...I have defended you at various points as I hope you know. This headline however is utter trash...shame on you sir!
    • An actual cosmic "Eye of Sauron" had been looking straight at us all along by Sayan Sen Image by Kovin P. Vasquez via Pexels | Not representative An international team of researchers has solved a long-standing mystery surrounding a distant blazar known as PKS 1424+240, helping explain why it produces some of the brightest high-energy gamma rays and cosmic neutrinos ever observed despite appearing to have a relatively slow-moving jet. The findings were published on June 6 in Astronomy & Astrophysics Letters. The study addresses a broader challenge in astrophysics: understanding how extreme cosmic objects accelerate particles to very high energies and produce very high-energy (VHE) photons and neutrinos. PKS 1424+240 is located billions of light-years from Earth. It has attracted attention for years because it is both a powerful source of VHE gamma rays and the brightest known neutrino-emitting blazar in the sky, according to observations by the IceCube Neutrino Observatory. It is also associated with one of the strongest peaks in IceCube's nine-year neutrino sky map A blazar is a type of active galactic nucleus powered by a supermassive black hole that pulls in surrounding matter and launches jets of plasma moving close to the speed of light. What makes blazars unique is their orientation. One of their jets points almost directly toward Earth, making them appear exceptionally bright across the electromagnetic spectrum and allowing scientists to study some of the most extreme physical processes in the Universe. The scientists exclaimed it's like the 'Eye of Sauron' in deep space. Usually, the brightest gamma-ray-emitting blazars are expected to have jets that appear to move very quickly. However, radio observations of PKS 1424+240 suggested that its jet was moving much more slowly, creating a contradiction that became part of a long-running problem known as the "Doppler factor crisis." To investigate, researchers analyzed 15 years of observations from the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA), a network of 10 radio antennas spread across the continental United States, Hawaii and St. Croix. Using a technique called Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI), astronomers combine signals from widely separated radio telescopes to create a virtual Earth-sized telescope capable of revealing extremely fine details. The team combined 42 polarization-sensitive radio images collected between 2009 and 2025, creating a much deeper and more detailed view of the jet than had previously been possible. The observations were carried out as part of MOJAVE (Monitoring Of Jets in Active galactic nuclei with VLBA Experiments), a long-running program that studies the brightness, polarization and magnetic field structures of jets produced by active galaxies. The project aims to better understand how activity near supermassive black holes is linked to high-energy radiation and neutrino emission. “When we reconstructed the image, it looked absolutely stunning,” said Yuri Kovalev, lead author of the study and Principal Investigator of the European Research Council-funded MuSES project at the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy. “We have never seen anything quite like it — a near-perfect toroidal magnetic field with a jet, pointing straight at us.” The image revealed an unusual geometry. The researchers found that Earth lies almost directly in line with the jet, with a viewing angle of less than 0.6 degrees. In simple terms, astronomers are looking almost straight down the jet. This turned out to be the key to the mystery. Because the jet is aimed almost directly at Earth, a relativistic effect called Doppler boosting dramatically increases its apparent brightness. The study found that this effect boosts the emission by a factor of about 30 while also making the jet appear slower than it actually is. “This alignment causes a boost in brightness by a factor of 30 or more,” said Jack Livingston, a co-author at the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy. “At the same time, the jet appears to move slowly due to projection effects — a classic optical illusion.” The nearly head-on view also gave scientists a rare look at the jet's magnetic field. Using polarized radio signals, they detected a clear toroidal, or doughnut-shaped, magnetic field component. The observations suggest the jet carries an electric current and that its magnetic field helps launch, shape and stabilize the flow of plasma. Researchers believe this magnetic structure may also play a key role in accelerating particles to energies high enough to produce both gamma rays and neutrinos. “Solving this puzzle confirms that active galactic nuclei with supermassive black holes are not only powerful accelerators of electrons, but also of protons — the origin of the observed high-energy neutrinos,” Kovalev said. The research was conducted under the MuSES (Multi-messenger Studies of Energetic Sources) project, which investigates how active galactic nuclei accelerate particles and generate different cosmic signals, including light and neutrinos. Scientists say understanding how protons are accelerated and linked to neutrino production remains one of the major unanswered questions in astrophysics. The findings help explain why some blazars can appear to have slow jets while still producing extremely bright high-energy emissions. More broadly, the study strengthens the link between relativistic jets, magnetic fields, gamma rays and high-energy neutrinos. Researchers say the results provide new clues about how some of the Universe's most powerful natural particle accelerators work and offer important insights for multimessenger astronomy, which combines different types of cosmic signals to study extreme events in space.
