Okay, so maybe I was too harsh with the Go button. But I do have to apologize to people who find it useful. It’s just that my circle of friends who are really advanced users never use it (being keyboard ninjas all). Seems like some people over at Forever Geek love the Go button.

In any case, Micah (a poster in the same Forever Geek thread) asked how to get rid of the magnifying glass Go button beside the Search Bar. Here’s how:

  • Open your userChrome.css (Here’s how)
  • Insert this code at the bottom /* This removes the Search Bar Go button */ .search-go-button-stack { display: none !important; }
  • Save the file
  • Restart Firefox
