How to hide the status bar showing link URLs in Firefox


I am studying about using Firefox as a kiosk, I found the useful add-on called R-kiosk, it works like charmed, but I found a question that I don't have a solution for.

When I move the cursor to a link or image,it will show bar about this link URL or image URL in the lower left corner of Firefox.

enter image description here

How do I hide this?


Solution

  • You can style the user interface of Firefox with a css file, userChrome.css in the <profile_root>/chrome folder.

    The easiest way to get the path to the profile folder is to navigate to the url about:profiles.

    You will likely need to create the userChrome.css file, as it doesn't exist by default. Add the following to the CSS:

    @namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
    
    statuspanel {display:none!important;}
