when I press the "star" on an 'edit bookmark' screen there is no message that allows me to delete the bookmark.

Previously I could delete a bookmark by going to the URL address bar, clicking on the star, and selecting "delete bookmark." Recently that latter button -- the delete button -- has not appeared. Nor can I use the batching delete function, as the list of bookmarks below the "Best of the Web" folder does not show up when I select "show all bookmark." Do others have this trouble? How do you manage?

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Thanks. The problem now seems to be that the "delete" message doesn't appear in the box. But the box appears to work.
