The refresh button is attached to the right side of the Location bar. See attached screenshot. In case you still don't see it, you will need to customize your Navigation toolbar.

Also, you can move the Home button to your desired location by customizing the Navigation toolbar.

See this article for instructions on how customize your toolbars: Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars.

Thanks a million dy-no-mite. It all seems intuitive now but without your help I would still be lost.

Some extra information:

Firefox 4 uses a combined Stop/Reload/Go button that is positioned at the right end 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.

New is not always better. This version is terrible, please fix it. I want to go back to the old version where I don't have to look for home and have a refresh button.

dynamite.........How do I view that picture you attached? I don't see it attached anywhere.

I must be missing something, but I can't figure this out. There is nothing attached to the Location bar that I can see.

@leefoo, the attachment is right below my first post.
