The recommended way to install user styles is to use Firefox with Stylish.

If you already have Firefox with Stylish, make sure this site is allowed to run JavaScript.

Automatically hides either the back or forward buttons (Or Both!) based on your current navigation of the page.
-If you cannot move back, the back button is removed.
-If you can't move forward, the foreward button is hidden.
-If you are on a new tab or window, BOTH buttons are removed! (and so is the dropmarker button)

* Thanks to SCORPiON and AgentSierra for their Back/Forward hiding styles - Where I got the idea.

Gives you a larger area, and more screenspace for your browser...They only display when required!
Works for both Firefox 3 and Firefox 2.
Why install an extension to do this, when you can do it through CSS!?

Unified Back/Forward buttons that only appear when you need them (nothing to go to). Visually notifies you if you have a page to navigate to by enabling the button!

Works great with the Back Is Close Firefox Extension!

Integrates with Remove the RSS Feed Icon Button from Firefox 3 & 2, and Remove the Home Button, allowing you to remove the RSS Icon, the Bookmark favorite icon, and the Home toolbar Button.

Changelog:
1.0.0.2:
+ Added code to also hide the DropMarker if BOTH the Back and Forward buttons are disabled (new tab)

1.0.0.1:
+ Added Namespace so that the style only applies to the App User Interface.
