where is the lock symbol that tells me I am on a secure page in Firefox 5.0
I just recently upgraded to Firefox 5.0. The old version had a little lock in the bottom right hand corner that signified that I was on a secure page (for banking, shopping checkout, etc). I do not know where to check on the page of this new version to be sure that I am on a secure page before entering the required checkout info. Thanks for your help.

The padlock only shows that there is a secure connection and doesn't guarantee that you are connected to the right server. So you might still be connected to the wrong server if you make a typo in the URL and someone has claimed that mistyped URL. The functionality of the padlock has been replaced by the Site Identity Button on the left end of the location (address) bar.

This has actually existed since Firefox 3.0
If you still want a padlock icon also then

Thank you for explaining this. I will now check out the site identity button before entering any personal information at a website.
