How do I get the Autohide hack to work for other toolbars I installed, lie the Google Toolbar? What do I replace PersonalToolbar with

I have a problem using the Autohide tweak. Once I start autohiding, I can't click on bookmarks that are in subfolders of the Bookmarks Toolbar (like Latest Headlines). Only bookmarks that are directly on the toolbar work.

sbw07: This is an old one that only worked with Firefox 2.0 if you have Firefox 3.0 then you need stylish and this code: http://userstyles.org/styles/6599

Thanks for the tip!

excellent mod! is there any way to set a 1 sec delay before the toolbar disappears again? It keeps disappearing when I don't want it to when using a trackpad!

hey guys, is there a way to set a timer or something on the Auto-hide thing.. i mean, i'd like it to wait for like 2 seconds before poping up.. so it'll never happen accidentaly, for example i pass the curssor up to the address tolbar and the bookmark bar keeps poping up accidentaly... so i was wondering is there a way to set it to 2 secs or X secs .. you know what i mean.

^^ Not possible.

Did you try that:
A right-click on the navigation toolbar (on the 'home' icon for example) gives a contextual menu allowing to mask toolbars (navigation, bookmark, webdevelopper, etc..)
