Doesn't Firefox browser history show a date?

I can see my browser history options, like Yesterday, Last 7 Days, Last Month just fine. My problem is I would like to see what date I visited that site. Doesn't Firefox save the date like Google or IE? Does no one else use this feature?

I sometimes need to know a date, maybe we had problems registering the first visit or something didn't process correctly. I've had important forms that were claimed not received but with a date they can magically find them.

For example I had troubles processing some information on a utility site, If I could tell their tech dept what date I visited we could narrow down the problem. I wasn't made aware they didn't receive it until yesterday and I generated the activity sometime the last week of August.

hi, if you open the history pane (ctrl+shift+h) you can enable the "most recent visit" pane under views > show columns.

That fixed it, thank -you!

One would have thought it would say 'Show Date' rather than most recent visit.
