Why does this not work in fullscreen?

Given that I typically have 5-8 rows of tabs running, it suddenly struck me that it would be nice to autohide the FF tabbar, like I do with the Windows Taskbar and another Windows toolbar.

I posted a query on the TabMix Plus forum (which is the tabbar extension I use) where I was pointed to:

http://userstyles.org/styles/4435

That mentioned an add-on called Stylish, which was suggested as the best way to add this and other CSS? changes. So I installed Stylish and it then the script code.

Now my rows of tabbars are hidden and I have more FF screen to work with!

There are also a whole lot of scripts available for doing all sorts of customizations under Stylish (sort of like Greasemonkey?).

I think this is something you should write about, Martin.

You need to bump up the timer on the time we have to edit comments. I took only 30 seconds and it had timed out already. I have a crippled hand and can’t type 5000 words a minute.

The Firefox tab bar is always visible in the web browser
unless it is permanently deactivated in the View menu.

There is no option to disable it in there.

In all of the Firefox versions I have used since tabs were first implemented Firefox has allowed you to hide the Tab when there is one Tab or less is visible.

Tools > Options > Tabs > Uncheck Always show the tab bar

I have never been a big fan of ctrl functions, but I think its useful to know that regular old F11 will put FireFox or IE or Chrome (have not tried Safari) in full screen mode, without tabs, without toolbars, etc. Press F11 again to exit full screen mode.

Errr… yes? Thumb in CTRL and F11 with the ring or middle finger, and I have very small hands =S

And with your left hand… can’t you press CTRL+F11??

Well if I use the right hand then I still have to move my hand away from the mouse. My personal preference is to use keyboard shortcuts with my “keyboard-hand” which is the left one.

“CTRL F11 which is not that comfortable as it can only be accessed with both hands”
Both hands? You have short fingers or forgotten that keyboards have two Ctrl keys?
