Since updating to Firefox 23 the URL bar and the search bar now function as the same thing, this is annoying to me because before I used the search bar as a search on Dictionary.com while I used the URL bar as a search on Google. Is there any way to get back to the previous behavior?

What is the point of having two bars if they both do the same thing?

You can use https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/keyword-search/ to have a different engine in the URL bar
