</p><p>The incorrect highlighting seems to be an issue with some add-on themes, possibly caused by changes in how Firefox wants theme authors to refer to different colors. Anyway, in order to experiment, it would be useful to know which theme are you using.

Hi Timtak, I'm not sure whether you are having problems with selection colors or the fact that text is automatically selected.
The current text is automatically selected when focus moves into the bar, and I don't think there is an off switch for that (I realize Linux worked differently before).
<em><strong>Highlight Colors in the Address Bar</strong></em>
I <em>think</em> this only affects some add-on themes, due to changes in the way Mozilla requires theme authors to assign colors. You shouldn't notice any problem with the built-in themes (Default, Light, Dark).
If you need to override the selection colors for an add-on theme, you can use custom style rules. If you are using an approach like the one described earlier in <a href="/en-US/kb/new?title=1283831%3Fpage%3D3#answer-1324907" class="new" title="Page does not exist." rel="nofollow">answer-1324907</a> then you can add these additional rules to use Firefox's default colors for your OS (commonly white on blue):
<pre>#urlbar {
--lwt-toolbar-field-highlight: Highlight;
--lwt-toolbar-field-highlight-text: HighlightText;
}
</pre>

</pre>
<p>to userchrome.css (which I am using to get multirow tabs) does not seem to change the way that the URL bar is highlighted. I am not sure if automatic selection is a problem or not, but I do not like the light blue on white highlighting at all.
I wish it would behave like an other text such as the text that I am typing but going back to negative (white on dark blue) would help a lot.

<p>The original solution was for Firefox 75-76 which had the "update1" opt-out preference. That is gone in Firefox 77.
</p><p>You can use an optional <strong>userChrome.css</strong> file to prevent the enlargement of the address bar box. It's a little bit involved, so please set aside 10 quiet minutes to work through it.
</p><p>(For anyone who already has a userChrome.css file set up, you just need to add the rules you downloaded under (A) to your file.)
</p><p><strong>(A) Download a rules file</strong>
</p><p><a href="https://www.userchrome.org/samples/userChrome-ZeroEnlargement.css" rel="nofollow">https://www.userchrome.org/samples/userChrome-ZeroEnlargement.css</a>
</p><p>Use the downloads list on the toolbar to open the downloads folder directly to the new userChrome.css file. (See attached screenshot)
</p><p>Minimize that file browser window for later reference.
</p><p><strong>(B) Create a new</strong> <code>chrome</code> <strong>folder in your currently active profile folder</strong>
</p><p>The following article has the detailed steps for that (#1, #2, and I recommend #3)
</p><p><a href="https://www.userchrome.org/how-create-userchrome-css.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.userchrome.org/how-create-userchrome-css.html</a>
</p><p><em>I have videos for both Windows and Mac in case the text is not clear.</em>
</p><p><strong>(C) Move the</strong> <code>userChrome-ZeroEnlargement.css</code> <strong>file you downloaded in Step A into the</strong> <code>chrome</code> <strong>folder you created in Step B</strong>
</p><p><strong>(D) If you do not already have a</strong> <code>userChrome.css</code> <strong>file, Rename the</strong> <code>userChrome-ZeroEnlargement.css</code> <strong>file</strong>
</p><p>Right-click userChrome-ZeroEnlargement.css and choose Rename. Carefully remove <code>-ZeroEnlargement</code> and press Enter to save your change. The final file name needs to be userChrome.css or Firefox will never find it.
</p><p><strong>(E) Set Firefox to look for userChrome.css at startup</strong> -- see step #6 in the above article.
</p><p>The next time you exit Firefox and start it up again, it should discover that file and apply the rules.
</p><p>Success?
