How can I open FireFox with the 'Find' box/bar always open?

more options

When FireFox opens, click 'Edit' and 'Find'. This opens the box/bar at the bottom of the screen. I use it so often, I would like FireFox to open with the 'Find' box/bar already open.

You can also do this by adding the following line of code to userChrome.css

#FindToolbar { display: -moz-box !important; }


For an overview of editing userChrome.css, see the top part of http://www.linnhe2.free-online.co.uk/firefox/chrome.html and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Editing_configuration

It is better to use the extension. Using the code in userChrome.css gives a problem with the text label (Find) on the search bar that only appears if you press Ctrl + F.
