Не устраивает узкая адресная строка в Firefox? Не беда, исправляется одной строчкой #userchrome

#urlbar[open] { width: 80vw !important; }

I just upgraded #firefox and I'm not impressed.

Dear #Mozilla. The URL bar is the most prominent UI element in the browser. You made sure it's always in my face, and I'm glad for it.

So why are you making it hard to read? Don't cripple it with low contrast.

Make up your minds: either make the URL field great or make it hidden.

The following userChrome.css undoes this braindead change:

#urlbar-background, #searchbar {
background-color: Field !important;
}

#browser #design #lowcontrast

userChrome.css to the rescue:

@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul");

#urlbar-background { background-color: white !important; }
#searchbar { background-color: white !important; }
toolbaritem { --toolbar-field-border-color: ThreeDShadow; }

HOT PRIVACY TIP for #TorBrowser.

Tired of accidentally #searching from the URL bar.

Enter the 'about:config' page and change 'keyword.enabled' to 'false'.

We are supposed to believe that someone at #Mozilla thought, '#keyword' was an adequate description of the "feature".

For those interested in disabling #search from the #URLBar in #Firefox-based browsers, like #TorBrowser, #LibreWolf and the like:

In 'about.config'…

Change 'keyword.enabled' to false.

Someone at #Mozilla must've been awarded a 'Most #Obtuce Setting Descriptor of the Year' with that one.

We don't care for HSv3 for this reason of terrible #useability.

A heap of entropy could have been gained by making #Tor addresses 17 charaters, then using additional entropy to colour parts of URL text/bar, depending on choice of #webDeveloper.

Eg. If #webDev sees they get a great colour of #URLBar they can use that for design, if they get matching colours when highlighting the first 8 and last 3 letters of URL, they can do that.

Must use full entropy for #API #URL tho.

@vollkorn There is a fix via about:config! Set 'browser.urlbar.update1' to false, restart browser.
