Ask HN: kan haz FF/Chrome button to access bookmarks?

Posted by hankejh on Wednesday March 16, 2011 @01:36PM

I prefer to have FF's (and Chrome's) bookmark toolbar hidden, but I'd love to have a one-click-dropdown button for accessing them. Any suggestions for either browser?

There's almost certainly a much better place to ask this question. Might I suggest:

Thanks, but I received great answers for both browsers without having to register/post in multiple locations -- all in under 6 minutes. HN rocks.

In Chrome there's the CTRL+SHIFT+B shortcut that toggles the bookmark toolbar on and off. At first glance there doesn't seem to have a shortcut for that in FireFox but maybe you can configure a shortcut or a plugin exists for that?

CTRL+B brings up the bookmark sidebar on Fx.
