Hi jsal0318,

Firefox doesn't have an addon bar, last time I looked. But, there are around 7 extensions that will provide one. To fix your problem, we would need to know which extension you are using for this and then to hope someone else who codes also uses it.

There is still the #addon-bar and the #status-bar present if I look in the DOM Inspector (even in Nightly), but its height is zero.

Thanks, Dick, I knew that over 4 years ago and I still know it now, but that doesn't help the OP here.

You're welcome Frank.
I assumed you knew, but I still wonder why they still need this toolbar in the DOM (there is a mention of a very old bug report in toolbar.xml), so they might as well have this toolbar enabled if it is too much effort to cleanup the code.
