Title: Firefox add-on I found
Post by: Zootoxin on October 16, 2009, 04:17:01 PM
Hi guys,

came across this add on whilst browsing I think its pretty cool and decided to share.

All it does is hide the title bar at the top of the window giving you a slightly larger reading panel.

there also another one with hides the menu bar (toggled by pressing alt)

Of course! but that gets rid of your start bar and is toggled.

Simular, but not the same :)

F11 also gets rid of your tabs too :( (unless you move your mouse up top of course)

I really like this. But it messes up the width of my screen... even with manual added width...

Edit: I got it working, cheers! I hate F11 because you don't have bars, and yet, with them, you get that darn caption. I like to get as most screen estate as possible with my browser so this is a sweet addition. I now only have one line at the top + the tab line which I have manually reduced a wee bit + status bar at bottom.
