Moving the sidebar to the right in Firefox 3.5.6?

Post by Waylon »

Is there a working way to move the sidebar to the right via a code snippet in userChrome.css?

The example mentioned here doesn't work for me:

Code: Select all

#browser {
-moz-box-direction: reverse;
}


And neither does the code used for instance in the addon RightBar:

Code: Select all

hbox#browser {
   direction: rtl;
}
hbox#browser > vbox {
  direction: ltr;
}

You will note (or that is, you should have noted) that your example is the very one I posted at the top. It worked until version 3.5 came along, but it doesn't work anymore. At least not for me, I might add in all humility.

No problems here with #browser {-moz-box-direction: reverse;} in Firefox 3.5.6
Did you check for errors in userChrome.css?
Does it work with only the @namespace line and this code?
Do you have a theme installed that might interfere (use the DEFAULT theme to test)?

You also could try inserting !important.

#browser { -moz-box-direction: reverse !important; }

If nothing works, there is an extension, which should move the sidebar https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/7865

Actually, !important did the trick. Sometimes the easiest solutions are the best.
