Anyone know how to get rid of that text? I already know what that button is for and the text next to it is taking up space that my bookmarks toolbar could make better use of.

Cheers!

Antman, right-click on the button for a toolbar menu and select "Customize". Find the drop-down box next to "Show:" and change it from "Icons and Text" to "Icons".

Actually that doesn't work. The home text stays put.

Maybe we aren't talking about the same button? Please post a screen shot.

Home text stays put.

I might just get rid of the home button altogether, but it would be nice to figure this out.

What's odd is that the text, "Home", is off to the right of the icon instead of underneath like all of the others. What theme are you using? Here is what mine looks like with and without text. The theme is Noia 2.0 eXtreme.

This is the default theme in XP. I haven't changed the theme at all.

My buttons are on the same part as the bookmarks toolbar and icons are set to small.

That's what it is. I have the navigation toolbar disabled and just use the bookmarks toolbar and have the navigation buttons on it. For some reason it leaves the home button text in place on the bookmarks toolbar, but it disappears on the navigation toolbar. How very odd. It's treating the home button as one of the bookmarks and displaying the text to the side.

This appears to be working as designed. When the Home icon is on the bookmark toolbar it becomes a bookmark. The Home icon can be moved independent of the other navbar items to any toolbar or removed completely.
