where is selectable "go back" for multiple previous pages?

more options

the old 3.6 had 2 "go back" arrows, one for the last/prior page loaded and a drop-down showing the prior dozen or so from which i could select any back to the first. i'd like that feature back in 4.0

I noticed this on my new copy of this version. Am on a mac. For me, I just click on the "back" arrow, and hold it. In a brief moment, a list of the previous dozen or so pages will appear, just as if I had used the old familiar separate arrow for this list. I can then scroll down to the desired link, as before.

In addition to the above which also works on Windows and Linux, you can also get the drop down list right-clicking on the back/forward buttons.

If you want the drop-down arrow you can add it with the Back/forward dropmarker add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker

Thanks for the assistance. I remember when DEC had the PDP-8, more solutions came from the user's group DECUS, than from DEC. Jyork
