Dear Avast Forum Users and Gurus,
Does anybody know how to expand the bookmark toolbar to more than one line in Firefox 3?
I tried again to modify the userChrome.css file and use the tweak I used last time but to no avail :(
Any help would be much appreciated!

PS: These were two of the ones I tried!
#PersonalToolbar {display: none;}
#navigator-toolbox:hover >
#PersonalToolbar {display: -moz-box;}
/* Multi-row bookmarks toolbar */
#bookmarks-ptf {display:block}
#bookmarks-ptf toolbarseparator {display:inline}

I haven't tried this by myself since I don't use the bookmark toolbar but, according to MozillaZine (http://kb.mozillazine.org/Multiple_row_bookmark_toolbar), FF3 seems to require "a bit more code".
/* Multi-row bookmarks toolbar for Fx3b5pre*/
#bookmarksBarContent
{display:block !important;}
.places-toolbar-items
{display:block !important;
height: 35px !important;
overflow-y:auto !important;}
#bookmarksBarContent toolbarseparator
{display:inline !important;}
#bookmarksBarContent .bookmark-item
{visibility: visible !important;}
.chevron {height: 0px !important;}
As you see, this is for Firefox 3 beta 5 but it hopefully works with official FF3.

Hi Rumpelstiltskin,
Thanks for your prompt reply.
I entered the code exactly as it was displayed into userChrome.css, and although I obtained an additional second line for my bookmark toolbar the excess bookmarks (ie. those that don't fit on line 1) continue off the page on the top line to the right :-(
Do you by any chance have any other code or ideas? :-)
Thanks in advance!

I wonder if I understand you correctly but if you meant the second line was not enough, you may need to adjust the height by editing the red number.

#bookmarksBarContent toolbarseparator
{display:inline !important;}
#bookmarksBarContent .bookmark-item
{visibility: visible !important;}
.chevron {height: 0px !important;}

Not wishing to put words into Avastfan1's mouth. What I think it means the additional bookmarks don't overflow into the second line, but don't get displayed until you click the >> double arrow or continuation symbol on the first line.

Hmmm... Snapshot may help. I'll leave mine just for reference.

Certainly working on yours, I hate the default firefox theme though.
Check out this one, Aeon Clouds, see image. As you can see I don't use the Bookmarks toolbar ;D I like the menu drop downs as well.

O.K. DavidR. I tried the theme and the trick works fine with it, too. ;)

Not a bad theme at all, seriously. 8)

Yes it is a cool theme and my low resolution gif image screen shot doesn't do it justice.
I only went looking for a theme when the one I used in preference to the 2.0 default (Winestripe, clean and simple look) wasn't compatible with 3.0.
