i use tree style tab which places the tab bar on the left side of the browser and i just double click anywhere within the tab bar to open a new tab this add-on also has the new tab button at the bottom of all open tabs so its always in the same location ...

I don't like that you can no longer add a Open New Tab icon to the toolbar.
Sure, there's the + next to the last open tab, but I find it much quicker and more intuative if the item I have to click to open a new tab is in the same location on the screen every time I want to use it.

Can you not just double-click the tab bar?


That doesn't work for me unless I can see the menu bar. :x

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

Whilst I'm on the subject of tabs I like that performing a search automatically opens a new tab. However if you perform that exact same search again it uses the current tab. Either do it or don't!

I have that setting, it just seems that it doesn't work consistently, or how I would expect it too more likely.

if using google

save settings and see if that is what you require ...

(I'm on my PS3 here) Is the PDF reader a potential security risk, more than normal perhaps?

Yeah it does, but I think they made it more prominent in this version.
