Firefox missing a New Tab button?
I have Firefox on my home and work computers. The one at work is 3.0.10. The one at home is probably the same since I just installed it this weekend.
At the far right of my work installation is a button on the same line as the tabs. It looks like a tab with a green plus sign. When I click it, I get a new blank tab.
On my installation at home, I don't have it. I have to right-click on the tab line to create a new tab. How can I get that button on my home installation?

It's probably an addon. You can also add a button that creates a new tab. 1. Right click on the blank space next to the Help menu.
2. Click Customize
3. Now, click and drag the 'New Tab' button so that it's next to the home button.
4. Click OK
5. ???
6. PROFIT!
Also, you can click CTRL + T to open a blank tab.
Enjoy!
EDIT: Figured out what you meant. Here's how to get it:
1. Click Tools
2. Click Options
3. Click on the Tabs tab
4. Check the check box that says "Always show the tab bar"
5. Click OK

LOL I had the same problem.Here is how I fixed it. ... You know what the address bar is right? it's the area where you type your website names. Somewhere around that address bar(on top or on bottom...but close to it) right click and make sure the MENU BAR is selected. Once you have your menu bar,now you click the TOOLS button(on top,second from the right) then choose the OPTIONS .A small window will come up,navigate to TABS area. You'll see 6 or 7 options ....the 4th option from the top will allow you to ALWAYS SHOW YOUR TABS BAR...mark it then click OK and you're good to go buddy.

Use a shortcut. Ctrl+T. Also, you can try going to View-->>Toolbars-->>Customize and then drag the new tab button to the navigation toolbar.
