Firefox 107 disabled my floating search window.
I use the userChrome.css file to take the search bar from the bottom of the screen and have it float. Here's the instruction that I use ... .browserContainer > findbar {-moz-box-ordinal-group: 0; position: fixed !important; }. Firefox 107 has made that .css instruction non-executable. If I text out the instruction I now get the search box at the bottom of the screen. I want it back to a floating search box. Is there a fix in 107 so I can use my .css file or is there another way to get the search box floating. Regards

Did you confirm that your userChrome.css file is in the correct location (chrome folder in the Firefox profile folder) and is processed ? Maybe check this with some simple code to set font-size or text/background color to the urlbar.
#urlbar-container {font-size:15pt!important}

I know I'm using the right file in the right folder for the right profile. I put the instruction in and the findbar completely disappears. I take the instruction out and the findbar appears on the bottom. I take out all other instructions and I get the same results. The file itself IS working and being processed by Firefox. You already have a copy of the contents of my userChrome.css file. Do you see anything unusual? I trust not. Again, I ask "How come nobody has a definitve answer to moving the findbar to the top?" And, why does it work in 106 but not 107 and higher? I have not changed this file in eons, long before 106 even.

The code I posted above works fine for me. You have never posted userChrome.css with the code I posted above, so I can't control/verify your efforts.
I use extra code to reposition all the items on the Find bar as I prefer to have the close button at the far left and the number of matches after the Up/Down buttons and add background color when options are checked.
FWIW, I am using -1 to place the find bar below the bottom tool bar (the tabs bar). Its position is fixed.
.browserContainer > findbar {
order:-1 !important;
}
What do you mean with Its position is fixed ? You only need to use order:-1 and let Firefox do the positioning (so do not use position:fixed).
