i Have been using Mozilla Firefox web browser for quite a while...although i have worked on version 2 mostly.....recently i updated it to version 3.
Version 3 seems to have a nice interface but the feature that i feel is missing from the last version is the Go button in the address bar. Version 2 had a small arrow in the address bar which works as the Go button.
The button was very helpful for me in my surfing needs...in Version 3 i have to either click on the refresh button or click on the address bar and press enter.
I have explored firefox version 3 to see if the button can be enabled...but could not find ne such thing.
Is there any way to get that arrow back there?

In search of light...
when you type an URL, a small blue arrow will appear near the end of the address bar. this is the GO button in FF3! this arrow is not visible if a page is already open or loading.

the pages update every second that i visit......so to get the updated text/values i need to press the GO button as and wen i need to get the updated page.
the problem with reload is that it loads the images etc again....which takes undue time and bandwidth.
and pressing enter in the address bar is troublesum ...

can u get the button there on already loaded pages as in version 2 ?

Thats the arrow for the Drop Down Menu. ;)
When a page is completely loaded or the address bar is empty, there are no visible Go button in FF3.

Well, if you are too used to the go button in fx 2, then you can move the refresh button to the right of the address bar. AFAIK, you can only get the go arrow in the address bar when you type a new address in the bar.

BTW, if you absolutely need the go button everytime, just install this extension: Show Go!
