Is there to remove the new open new tab button that is to the right of tabs? I'd also like to remove the tab list thing on the right side but I can't figure out how to do it.

Thanks LN.
Anything to remove the tab drop down at the right?
Seems as though the "Stylish", "Remove tab drop down" has been immobilized.
Couldn't see any updated Styles.

I know Tab Mix Plus allows you to control what buttons show up on the tab bar.

Thanks Bluefang.
Would really prefer the "Stylish" way. ;)
Hopefully, someone will update it.

Well, that got rid of the "Close" button but didn't touch the "Drop Down".
Next please. ;)

Apparently TMP messes around with the contents of the tab bar. Lets try this again with a virgin profile

Code: Select all
.tabbrowser-tabs .tabs-alltabs-button,
.tabbrowser-tabs .tabs-alltabs-box-animate,
.tabbrowser-tabs .tabs-newtab-button,
.tabbrowser-tabs .tabs-closebutton
{
display: none !important;
}

I put this in my userChrome.css file:
Code: Select all
/* Tab bar: hide new tab button */
tabbrowser .tabs-newtab-button { display: none !important }

I didn't have that one displayed when Firefox 3.5 first started up, so I assume it was hidden by this userChrome.css code:
Code: Select all
/* Tab bar: hide all tabs drop-down list */
.tabbrowser-strip *[class^="tabs-alltabs"] { display: none !important }

Removes both buttons.
I've got a bottle of "White Out" here somewhere.
Maybe I'll use that. ;)

Thanks for the assist, Bluefang.

Thanks muchly, Gingerbread Guy.
Worked like a charm.
Looks a lot cleaner now.

I'm a little confused. I would like to remove the new tab button, but keep the drop down list. How do I do that? Thanks.

By the way, a pox on lower contrast between text and background, as the forum has moved to. Not all of us have twenty year old eyes, folks.
