Hello everyone,

I'm new to Fx extensions, so please provide the solution for the following problem I have:

I want to have my bookmarks tab on the left side, that will be showing only the icons of my fav pages. Is it possible to do with any of the Fx 10 extensions?

Thanks for your help.

Michal.

You can hide the search bar, but the only way to hide the names that I can find is to set the text color to transparent. Adding (leaf) will still show folder names.


Add code to userChrome.css below the default @namespace line.

The customization files userChrome.css (interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the chrome folder in the user profile folder.


@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */

#bookmarksPanel #sidebar-search-container { display:none!important; }
#bookmarksPanel treechildren::-moz-tree-cell-text(leaf) { color:transparent!important; }

Yes, something like that, but I only want the icons withiut the names (adresses) of the sites and other useless things for me like search box, etc. Is it possible?
