Whenever I switched or opened a new tab in Firefox 3.5 the tab remembered all the pages that were visited in that tab, and would show a dropdown list when I clicked the small arrow next to the back/forward buttons. 

When I switched tabs the dropdown would show the pages that I used to get to the page in the second tab.

Now all tabs have their history lumped together in 1 place and I have no idea how I got to many of the places I find.

Thanks VTDBA, that was the trick! I was looking at the 4 other dropdown arrows in my header and thinking inside the box.
