How do you use the flexible space?...
Oh.....I messed up my almost perfect menubar configuration by fooling around with the flexible space item. Now my searchbar is really long...how can I bring it back to the size it was by using the flexible space? Thanks...

This useful for controlling the size of the searchbar.

You can set the searchbar size through userChrome.css
/* Search box width */
#search-container, #searchbar {
min-width: 200px !important;
max-width: 200px !important; }
adjusting size to taste

/* Search box width */
#search-container, #searchbar {
min-width: 200px !important;
max-width: 200px !important; }

Drag all the icons from the navigation bar up to the top toolbar.. Now my searchbar is really long......

Put an FS at the far left end of the bookmarks toolbar. ( But only if you have a small number of bookmarks in the toolbar; e.g. works great for an 8-button toolbar. )

For alterna: I can't get the code to work. I remember trying the same thing in the past with no success.
Open Notepad, name it userChrome.css and save to the chrome folder in your profile. Copy and paste the following into it:
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* set default namespace to XUL */
/* Search box width */
#search-container, #searchbar {
min-width: 200px !important;
max-width: 200px !important; }
Make sure it's your Profile folder, Not Mozilla program folder.
Windows Vista
1. Click the Start button on the Windows taskbar to open the Windows Start menu.

2. Type in %APPDATA% in the "Start Search" box.
3. Click the "Roaming" item that appears on the menu.
4. In the Windows Explorer window that opens, choose Mozilla → Firefox → Profiles. Each folder in this folder is a profile on your computer.
You can also navigate directly to your profile folder at the path, C:\Users\<Windows>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\. The AppData folder is a hidden folder; to show hidden folders, open Windows Explorer and choose "Organize → Folder and Search Options → Folder Options → View (tab) → Show hidden files and folders".
Should work; Good luck.

Happy it worked.
I'm finding that there's much that can be tweaked in FF UI through userChrome.css without extensions.

is a good place to start.
