For people (like me), who had trouble finding Active Tab for Firefox 3: check out Colorize Firefox 3 Active Tab. *****

I'm using FF 2.0.0.12 on a mac os 10.5.2 and it doesn't work. It only has small blue colors on the top corners of the tab. Does anyone experience the same thing?

Doesn't work in Fx 3 b2pre, in this Fx versions tabs code and styles completely rewritten. ***

to erdam:

your code would be:

@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);

.tabbrowser-tab[selected="true"] > hbox,
.tabbrowser-tab[selected="true"] > .tab-close-button {
background-color: #000 !important;
color: #0f0 !important;
}

.tabbrowser-tab[selected="true"]:hover > hbox,
.tabbrowser-tab[selected="true"]:hover > .tab-close-button {
background-color: #f00 !important;
color: #0f0 !important;
}

Awesome! My favourite colour is neon blue...of course not that I ever found a FF neon blue style, but now I have a lovely neon blue active fab, and am thusly very happy indeed!

.tabbrowser-tab[selected="true"] > hbox,
.tabbrowser-tab[selected="true"] > .tab-close-button {
background-color: #7CE3FF !important;
color: #666 !important;
}

.tabbrowser-tab[selected="true"]:hover > hbox,
.tabbrowser-tab[selected="true"]:hover > .tab-close-button {
background-color: #7CE3FF !important;
color: #666 !important;
}

/* the rules below are optional, you can remove them */

.tabs-bottom {
background-color: #7CE3FF !important;
height: 6px !important;
} *****

**********I love the idea! I was wondering if you could create another style of it with Black background and Lime green Text and have the background change red when hovered over it. I'm a noob to stylish so i'm not all to sure how or which colors to change in order to achieve this affect. Thanks in advance for any help anyone could provide! ********** *****
