    When i installed Firefox 3, i noticed that the home tab is not there anymore (usually next to the stop tab). Is there a way to put this tab up?

    I tried putting firefox 2 back on and it now doesnt have the home tab either. It was there before but after installing firefox 3, then uninstalling it and installing firefox 2, the tab seemed to have disssapeared.

    Any ideas?

    Just right click on your Stop tab, select customize, and drop the home button where you want it.

    I tried that and there is no home tab there. It should be there but it isn't.

    I just don't understand why the hell Mozilla had to make it so hard to put the home page button in the toolbar. What's the home page for if there isn't a button to get to your home page? hmmm....?

    They thought it was ergonomically better to put it in the bookmarks place. If you wait a little while, it grows on you, and seems more natural to click there.

    too bad and too late matey, the ball is staying in ur court. But honestly speaking, u'd be a better candidate in this; i m too much of "if it works right" type than "users friendly handling" type

    cheers ...
