V 3.6.17 has a dropdown menu to the right of the back and forward button called "recent pages" BRING IT BACK!!!!

When I go to a page that auto redirects me to another page,, the only way to get back to the page I was on before hand is to be able to choose to go back more than one page at a time. You took that away in the newer versions.. If I was able to go back to that older version I would just for that feature.

Please calm down. You are shouting at users(volunteers) like yourself who are trying to help.

If you have Back/Forward arrow(s) on your Navigation Bar, right click on them and you'll see your recent pages. You can also hold down left click for a second or two.

There is an extension that restores the drop marker if you feel you need it -

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker/?src=api.

It is up-to-date.

My apologies for "shouting", I was under the impression this was yet another official Mozilla Support site. I have posted in many areas every since that change was made and this is the first response I have received. Thank you for helping.
