I've been using this for over a year. Still works great!

i just installed on FF3 and it works perfectly for me

@Peter Gadd and Desi911 read the author's directions. You have to move the refresh button to right of the stop button.

Desi911 said on Jun 24 2008

Yup same problem as Peter Gadd said. I guess the script hasn't been updated since FF3 came out. Used to work great with FF2. No worries...I'll wait :D

Peter Gadd said on Jun 23 2008

Strange - after installing this script and clicking on the 'reload' button, whichever button is next to the reload button changes to the 'stop' button (on my FF3 it is the 'home' button).
I thought the purpose of this script was for the 'reload' button to become the 'stop' button and v.v. Can anyone help please?

Works perfectly on FF3.

So simple, its magic. But can CSS make me a grilled cheese sandwich too?
Thanks!

Works as expected. Now I can have the thinnest browser evar. Thank you dougeeebear!

Very nice. Works well with FF3 RC2.

it's possible to do like safari, that, when page is loading the button stops and when page is already loaded the button refreshs?

Was about to complain about it in 3.0b5, but after I reread and saw that I had to change the order of the stop/reload buttons, it works now.

Isn't reload/stop the default order though? I don't remember switching the buttons myself before...

works in ffx 3 beta 5 too

Nice.

Dman said on Apr 15 2008

That's really nice!

@conen: If you see both at once when loading, make sure the buttons are in the correct order. I forgot that.

Great... Works with FF3 Beta 4 (I use Portable)
(just remember to do as the picture says)

Perfectly work on Fx3.

fantastic...

Nicely done!

Very nice...I'm a major "real estate" increase buff.

Very Nice.

Excellent! Thank you!

More space is always welcome!

[Opera style]

Very nice!

Something I've been looking for a while now! Awesome work!

qrayg said on May 08 2007

I used to use a plugin that combined these two buttons. But, I soon realized that it's much easier to just hit Esc instead of using the mouse to click stop. Then you just need to remove the stop button from the toolbar and you are all set.

slippiefist said on Apr 22 2007

This works perfectly on Flock! Thanks very much. Opera style!

canen said on Apr 18 2007

There seems to be a problem with this style and the Whitehart theme. When a page is actually loading the two buttons separate then go back together once loading is complete. The Stop-or-Reload extension seems to work fine though.

I find that I like it the same way. Thanks for the code!

hughman said on Mar 06 2007

I find it more usefull to place the button refresh before stop than the opposition, in fact. In this case, when a page is loading, the stop button will appears automatically, and when the page has been loaded, it will disappear. Otherwise, if the page has not been loaded completely and at the moment you want to refresh the page, you have to click twice.:)

Now that's nice, real nice

Lysias said on Feb 27 2007

Works as intented. Good job! Nice to get rid of one more extension by using a Stylish script.

Kingsley said on Feb 22 2007

cool!

falcon212 said on Feb 12 2007

great job !

brim4brim said on Jan 21 2007

Not much to say other than it does what it says it does so if you want to combine these two buttons then this does it.

Would prefer not to have had to modify the button layout first but I'm sure theres a reason for it.

myf said on Jan 13 2007

Worth to include directly to the userChrome.css

Scott G said on Jan 10 2007

Another logical Combine Stop/Reload buttons style !!

Why don't the FF developers spend time doing "logical" coding like this instead of wasting time what the backspace button does ?

the DtTvB said on Jan 08 2007

Perfect! Thank you very much!

Love it, thanks!

Jaymoon said on Nov 29 2006

Works perfect! I kinda got used to this setup with Flock, but once Firefox 2.0 came out, I never noticed I loved the Stop/Refresh as one button feature so much.

Thanks for the updated instructions :D

jw25 said on Nov 04 2006

This is one that you don't want to be without. Nice, simple, and always works.

Dawudd said on Oct 29 2006

Any way to combine further the Stop and Reload buttons with the Go button?

very useful, briliant idea

Very useful for navigating.

arantius said on Jul 23 2006

Wonderful! Much better than an extension to handle it.

medigerati said on Jul 06 2006

Brilliant idea. Easy install and very handy. I'm all for reducing space!

jakev said on Jun 28 2006

Worked perfectly.. and the idea makes sense. nice job.

Lavve said on Jun 13 2006

Love it!
It doesn't work with the IE Tab extension though. It shows the stop button all the time...
Thanks dougeeebear!

ardbeg said on Jun 10 2006

This is a classic "this should be standard" modification. This style lets me get rid of an extension, since obviously three lines of code is more efficient.

Awesome

tostada said on Mar 27 2006

Nice.

timendum said on Mar 24 2006

Good idea, but my reaload button never hides...

Shadowtech said on Feb 26 2006

Simple, yet quite clever. Nice work.

More space is always a good thing.
