My navigation toolbar in new FF 4.01 does not include a home or reload icon. How do I get them back?

I just downloaded FF 4.0.1. The navigation toolbar does not have home or reload icons (or indeed most of the icons FF help lists as default, but these are two I use every day). If I can't have these, I'd actually prefer to revert to the previous version (which I guess is not possible). Can you help?

You can find the Home button at the far right end of the Navigation Toolbar.

Firefox 4 uses a combined Stop/Reload/Go button that is positioned at the right end side of the location bar.
During the page load process it shows as a Stop button and after the loading has finished the button is changed to a Reload button.
If you type in the location bar then that button becomes a Go button.
You can middle-click that Reload button to duplicate the current tab to a new tab.

To move the Stop and Reload buttons to their position to the left of the location bar you can use these steps:

  • Open the "View > Toolbars > Customize" window to move the Stop and Reload button out of the location bar.
  • Drag the Reload and Stop buttons to their previous position to the left of the location bar.
  • Set the order to "Reload - Stop" to get a combined "Reload/Stop" button.
  • Set the order to "Stop - Reload" or separate them otherwise to get two distinct buttons.

Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize"

Thanks so much! It took me a while to understand, but you're right. Pam
