In IE 8 there is a "recent pages" tab next the forward / back buttons. It helps us jump back & forth the sites. Is there similar feature in FF 6 ?

Thanx to dynamite for the helpful reply. Sinc Im new to FF, I have been going through the "getting started" tab many times searching vainly for the answer. So my question here.. why the hell this information isnt found anywhere in the "getting started" page ?? Maybe it is time it should be inserted somewhere ?

You're welcome! Please mark this question as solved by selecting the relevant answer. Thanks.

The getting started page/video are meant to focus on major features like App tabs and Personas. Details like forward/back buttons are documented in other knowledge base articles like Common questions after upgrading from Firefox 3.6.

  • Right click on the Back or Forward button
  • Hold down the left mouse button on the enabled Back or Forward button until the list opens

You can look at this extension:
