<p><a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addons/versions/1042#version-2.0" title="at Mozilla Add-ons">Bookmarks' Full Titles version 2.0</a> is a tiny extension for Firefox 2 that eliminates truncation of bookmarks' titles, in the Bookmarks menu and in dropdown menus from the Bookmarks Toolbar.

<p><ins datetime="2008-02-10T17:33Z">If you're using Firefox 3, you want <a href="/placesfulltitles">Places’ Full Titles</a> instead.</ins>
</p>
<p>Bookmarks in top level menus - i.e. directly under the Bookmarks menu or directly under a folder on the Bookmarks Toolbar - don't expand to full width, because submenus would be inaccessible if they did. But this extension does make them somewhat wider than they are usually.

<p>It was inspired by <a href="http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=284769">some code _Jim_ posted</a> to <a href="http://forums.mozillazine.org">MozillaZine Forums</a> that I then packaged into an extension for ease of use and general good karma. Besides, it took about thirty seconds to hack up based on <a href="/dropdownremover">Back/Forward Dropdown Remover</a>.
