Resize Firefox

Hello everyone, strange problem here.

My Firefox window has expanded so large that I cannot click&grab the lower right hand widget to resize the window.

When I close and restart Firefox it starts up again at the same size, so I have been unable to change the window size.

Is there somewhere that I can go to reset the starting windows size to its default?

I'm not sure how I got the window to expand to this size at all in the first place!

Thanks for any help.

Go here;

drag this file to the trash and restart Firefox;

org.mozilla.firefox.plist

Harvey - did you try clicking on the green dot at the upper left
corner of the browser?



bobw:
I have Firefox 1.0 preveiw release - i cannot find an org.mozilla.firefox.plist file anywhere on my computer,
but i do have a org.mozilla.mozilla.plist file.

*I also have Mozilla 1.7 - is that why that plist file is absent?
 
This is the plist for the 1.0 preview;

org.mozilla.mozilla.plist file

This is for the 1.0 final just released;

org.mozilla.plist file
 
Sounds like Harvey has checked Full Screen from the View menu. Unchecking this should solve the problem.
 
Hey guys, it's not the full screen option, I toggled that, the screen adjusts position, but not enough to grab the widget.

Also, I deleted all mozilla related plist files, and still no avail! Crazy.

The green button didn't work out either.

I understand the suggestions you guys have made, I'm really confused as to why the plist thing didn't work...
 
try moving this folder to the desktop as it has a bunch of setting it it
home -> library -> application support -> firefox

Firefox will then re-create that folder and all the necessary files. Once that's done, don't forget to copy back your bookmark file. :)
 
Oh crap.

Okay, after I removed the plist files, then restarting, and pushing the green button did the trick.

Geesh.

Thanks all!
