Strange entry in Location Bar with FF 43

[TigerClaw]

I forgot to check this thread recently...

I tried the latest collection of "oldbar style drop-down" rules from this post:

viewtopic.php?p=14683121#p14683121

The first rule didn't work to hide the "search with" line for me, but switching the pseudoclass from :first-child to :first-of-type solved it:

Code: Select all

  #PopupAutoCompleteRichResult richlistitem:first-of-type {
    display:none !important;
  }

I found the background color of the selected item a bit dark on Windows 7; the color may vary between OS'es. This brightens it slightly vs. the default:

Code: Select all

  .autocomplete-richlistitem[selected=true] {
    background-color: Highlight !important;
  }

Or any arbitrary color that contrasts well with black and gray could be designated.

That seems to get rid of that top entry.

So I updated Firefox to 51.0.1 and Old Location Bar stopped working.

Why are you surprised, it hasn't been updated in almost two years, times change.

Is there another addon like Old Location Bay?

I had a look before posting, nothing obvious.
Way back I used Oldbar but that's even deader.. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/oldbar/ .. can't even remember what it did.
Search AMO.

I reinstalled version 50.1.0 since Old Location Bar still works on it.

Here's an update to the code that works for me with FF 68. Note that you have to remove the (previously typical) xul namespace declaration from the userChrome.css file, see here and here for details.

Code: Select all

.urlbarView-type-icon,
.urlbarView-favicon {
  order: 0 !important;
}
.urlbarView-url {
  order: 1 !important;
  margin-inline-end: 6px !important;
  margin-top: -2px !important;
  font-size: 1em !important;
  color: inherit !important;
  flex-shrink: 0 !important;
}
.urlbarView-title-separator {
  display: none !important;
}
.urlbarView-title {
  order: 2 !important;
  font-size: 1em !important;
  color: GrayText !important;
}
.urlbarView-tags,
.urlbarView-action {
  order: 3 !important;
  margin-top: -2px !important;
  font-size: 1em !important;
}
.urlbarView-action {
  margin-inline-end: 6px !important;
}
.urlbarView-row {
  height: 1em !important;
}
