here you can find an extension that makes the job for you:

This doesn’t work for me with Firefox 3 final (it did with the betas), but the following does:

@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul); #go-button { visibility: visible !important; }

I found that on the page for the “Show Go!” add-on.

Huh, what a stupid move to take it away. Thanks, i was ready to go back to version 2.

Thank you, it is an important element of the UI for me. Glad I found this to bring it back.

I don’t mind the change in Firefox 3.

Thanks! Very useful, as the final release does not have a persistent button either and that’s one I use a lot!

They made the Go button show in Firefox 3 only when you’re typing in the Address Bar due to popular demand for the change.

There’s good news for the new Address Bar as well. Simply install the oldbar extension and you’ll regain the old Address Bar behavior.
