Nice! Thanks, Drifus :)

Okay, this is very puzzling. Drifus suggested using

.tab-throbber[progress] { list-style-image: url("chrome://browser/skin/places/searching_16.png") !important; }

to change the throbber from green to grey.

It works perfectly. But I can't understand why!

The reason why I don't understand is because I can't find "chrome://browser/skin/places/searching_16.png" in omni.jar as I would expect.

Instead, I find it here:

E:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\omni.jar\chrome\browser\skin\classic\browser\places\searching_16.png.

So my question is: how does the URL "chrome://browser/skin/places/searching_16.png" translate to the path "E:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\omni.jar\chrome\browser\skin\classic\browser\places\searching_16.png"?

Since Drifus' suggestion works perfectly, I'm not complaining ... just try to understand what's going on!

The Gecko runtime maintains a service known as the chrome registry that provides mappings from chrome package names to the physical location of chrome packages on disk.

Thanks, Foxxyn8. So mapping explains it. Tricky stuff!

Is there any way to add a little space above the tabs, when "tabs on top" are selected? So I can click on it and drag the window.

#main-window[tabsintitlebar] #titlebar-content {
	margin-top: 6px !important;	
}

Try different values, according to your theme and styles.

Once you have space on top, you can reduce the right margin allocated to aero features.

.titlebar-placeholder[type="caption-buttons"] {
	margin-left: 8px !important;
}

Nice! Thanks, Drifus :)

You're welcome Vasa1. ;)

Thanks foxxyn8. Excellent explanation.

is there some code to change the left/right margins of the address bar? i'd like it to line up with the bookmarks/main content area below.

Did you put it in the nav-bar? You can try this:

#nav-bar {
  padding-left: 0 !important;
  padding-right: 0 !important;
}

How did you make your tabs so square?

And the IdentityBox?

Looks really nice.

Thanks! It's an addon called 'Stratiform'. You can find it here. (Download 1.0)

Hey is there a way to kill the chrome and use glass instead? Same as if the tabs were on the bottom?

Something like this?

#navigator-toolbox[tabsontop="true"] > toolbar:not(#TabsToolbar):not(#toolbar-menubar) {
	background-color: transparent !important;
}

In case you want to keep the background for the personal toolbar (bookmarks) try

#navigator-toolbox[tabsontop="true"] > toolbar:not(#TabsToolbar):not(#toolbar-menubar):not(#PersonalToolbar) {
	background-color: transparent !important;
}

#main-window[tabsintitlebar] #titlebar-content {
	margin-top: 6px !important;	
}

This also brings the Firefox menubutton down. Is there a way to keep it on top?

Edit: Nevermind, I found the code.

#appmenu-button-container
{
	margin-top: -6px !important;
}

Just yet realized my code few posts above was a bit complicated for no reason

A different way would be:

#navigator-toolbox[tabsontop="true"] #nav-bar {
	background-color: transparent !important;
}

If you also want the Personal-Toolbar transparent

#navigator-toolbox[tabsontop="true"] #nav-bar,
#navigator-toolbox[tabsontop="true"] #PersonalToolbar {
	background-color: transparent !important;
}

Close, but no cigar, the borders remain. Is there a way to flawlessly blend in the toolbar with the window?

I'm not exactly sure what you mean but more like this?

#navigator-toolbox[tabsontop="true"] #nav-bar {
        background: none !important;
	border: none !important;
}

This provides complete transparency to the nav bar and its border:

#navigator-toolbox[tabsontop="true"] #nav-bar {
                background: none !important; 
                border-color: transparent !important;
}
