Firefox 3.0 Address Tweak for SSL/TLS

Wednesday, March 11th, 2009

Since Firefox 3 scrapped the yellow address bar for SSL and TLS secured sites (i.e. https) and displays a nice green box for EV certificates I was hinted at a way to get a similar visual for non-EV certificates. You need to enter the FF configuration editor, pop about:config into your address bar, confirm you know there maybe dragons. Put browser.identity.ssl_domain_display into the filter box, double click on the result and then enter the value 2. Bingo! Job done.
