If you've used Firefox for OS X or Linux for any length of time, you'd notice that all of the widgets (buttons, text fields, radio buttons, checkboxs, dropdowns...) are some really fugly greyscale stuff with dithered gradients. There are mods and stuff that can make them look better, but they're not native aqua, like the ones in camino. I stumbled upon this post by Pu7o: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=363099

I tried the both of the fixes in there, and then copied the forms.css from the 3rd reply. It made things the right size, but now there were rectangular focus rings on selected widgets. So, I tried the forms.css from the third page. Now there were no focus rings on the text inputs. :(

So, I went and edited the forms.css myself. Now the multiple lists were inset (sunk into the page) and there are focus rings on whichever widgets needs them (text inputs and and stuff). The only ones that look weird are <button></button> buttons, but then they're pretty useless, so you won't actually see them anywhere.

Many thanks to Pu7o for figuring all of this out.

-This is an Intel-only build of Firefox 1.5.0.6 with native Aqua widgets-

Well, it seems to have the correct sized widgets and I like the focus rings as they are, so I'll stick to the one in there, but have you noticed that the JS dialogues slide out from the top now? The text inputs in the JavaScript dialogues are also too small.
