    Ideally I just want the icons of back, Forward, Reload, Stop and Home to be visible.

    Is it possible for the URL address to be removed from the Navigatoin bar and Menu bar (File, Edit, Print) to be completely removed?

    Thanks

      Yes, this is possible by editting the 'userChrome.css' file.  There is some documentation in the Wiki,http://www.eng.uwaterloo.ca/twiki/bin/view/Linux/KioskSetup, on setting this up.

      You'll want to add a line like

      #adddres-bar { display: none important; }

        I'm looking for a way to remove the menu bar.  But here's how I removed the address bar:

        You need to modify the file localstore.rdf located in the folder usr/share/booth/guest/.mozilla/firefox/c2d9ocbh.default

        In the file, search for the text "urlbar" (there's only one occurrence).  You will find this tag:

        <RDF:description
        RDF:about="chrome://browser/content/browser.xul#nav-bar"  currentset="back-button,forward-button,reload-button,stop-button,home-button,urlbar-container" />

        Remove the ",urlbar-container" portion of the tag.  That will do the trick.

        You should be able to login to the Wiki with the TWikiGuest account.  Also, there's a comma at the end of the URL which should not be there.
