How can I hide the Navigation Input (at least the URL) in Firefox 29.0?
I need to hide it for demonstrations to prevent attendees from browsing to a site while I'm showing it. This new release is not as clean looking when all the toolbars are unchecked. A minimal mode with tabs only would be helpful...the previous release was very good for this.

You can press F11 to go into full screen mode.
If you need a method that's not as easy to undo, put the following in the userChrome.css file.
@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul); /* The above line should appear only once at the top of the file */ #nav-bar { display: none !important; }
Note that in previous Firefox versions it was still possible to bring up a replacement toolbar via Ctrl+L, so this version is actually better in this respect.
This code has been removed in Firefox 29 because you can't hide the Navigation Toolbar.
Note that using an extension or code in userChrome.css can be overridden by starting Firefox in Safe Mode by holding down the Shift key when starting or the item in the Help menu.
You can look at the Classic Theme Restorer extension to restore some functionality that was lost with the arrival of the Australis style in Firefox 29.
