    Firefox 4 annoyance help.

    It's only a little thing, but for some reason it's really bugging me. Silly as it is i wonder if the clever people here have a fix.

    I just want to be able to click the 'bookmarks' without going through a submenu. When you press F10 the 'File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, Help' all appear back where we're used to seeing them in a web browser. Is there anyway to make that permanent. Or get FF4 to look like older versions mabee. I've had a rifle through the settings but can't see anything.

    Please make all answers fool proof

    Would Alt+B not do? If not and you want the old xp-style menu back, right click on one of the back or forward buttons and click 'menu bar'.

    Do you not have the bookmarks button on the top bar? Right click & customize then add the button?

    Yeah I was wondering the same, the button works well enough for clickity click, and tapping alt for when you really need the menu bar works ok. It's the only kind of dynamic UI element I'm alright with since it only acts on a keypress.
