Hi Vernard,
Thanks. But, that (Status-4-Evar) may not work now since the add on bar
is also gone. Anybody know if that plugin will work with 29?
This also looks promising.

Still investigating.
Sincerely,
Ron

Hi all,
(Also posting this on DC-404.)
The Firefox team has screwed up the UI AGAIN with release 29.
Supposedly sleek and streamlined, they've taken away the STATUS
bar or addon bar or whatever it's called lately. So, WARNING, if
you like Firefox the way it was, don't update and turn off auto
updates ... or find a way to restore the UI. Now, all the things
I did have on the status bar at the bottom have been moved to my
address bar, at the top, and now the address bar is about 1/2 its
normal size. Not only that, the Forecastfox weather alert system
I HAD on the bottom is gone and disabled. I hate the things they
keep doing like this.
So, I just happened to have downloaded the installer for 28, since
I heard this was coming. So, now I get to choose between having a
UI that I hate or never upgrading past 28.
There's supposed to be a way to put the old UI back while keeping
version 29. Does anyone know how to do that?
Sincerely,
Ron
