I use Firefox 3.6.17, Dutch version. At home i've updated to firefox 4. But I miss in this version one of the nicest features (i think): In the navigation toolbar on the left side (in version 3.x), you can browse back and forward and also there is a small arrow that shows the pages that you have visited (I don’t know the name in English, but in Dutch it is called recente pagina’s, literally translated recent pages). In version 4.x this little arrow has disappeared. How can I get it back in version 4.x?

Click-hold the unified Back / Forward button, or right-click it to get the Back / Forward history for that tab.

Or install this extension to get the old "drop-marker" button restored.
