I think that's where I smell a rat. It hasn't helped with my KDM problem though. -- Rgds Peter. Linux Counter 5290, 1994-04-23.

This opens the «Customize Toolbar» window for the toolbars, and you can drag and drop the items from this window to the toolbars. Do you see the Back- and Forward arrows inside the «Customize Toolbar» Window? If yes, then just drag-drop them where you like them. Or use the «Restore default set» button.

No dice. Probably an issue with your desktop theme. Try to switch it and maybe log-out/log-in. These buttons are not part of a desktop theme afaik.

Yes, I did intend to go step-wise. In fact I had the same absence of arrows in both those cases, so it's a feature of Firefox rather than my config. -- Rgds Peter. Linux Counter 5290, 1994-04-23.

If it doesn't, delete the one it just created and remove the .old and try something else. Dale :-) :-)

Hello list, Sorry about the noise, but is it just me or has version 3.6.12 of Mozilla Firerox lost its Back and Forward arrow buttons? Here I just get a drop-down box with a list of visited pages.
