How do I get rid of the Sidebar?

How do I set Netscape 6 preferences to not show the sidebar?

 

Hi Alex

Try using the F9 key. That sends it all the way to the left and when you hit F9 it opens.

Hi Alex & bobw,

You can also click the toggle bar, which is in the center of the left pane which separates the sidebar from the main frame.



This is also a permanent solution for getting rid of the sidebar.

 

The solutions suggested so far are solutions I have already tried. They make it disappear; but, as soon as I go to another site, it pops back out. I hate that aggravating thing.

Anyway, for some reason it seems to have disappeared permanently now. I don't know why it did; but, I don't care as long as it is gone for good.

It would be nice to know how to make it go away permanently. I do re-set up my machine frequently and I would like to have a definitive method that worked.

 

Alex,

This is what I have done, and I make continuous changes, to get rid of the sidebar permanently. The sidebar has never reappeared, after following these steps:

Open the sidebar
Remove all tabs

Click "View" or F9 (as suggested by bobw) and disable My Sidebar

You should definitely, not ever, see the sidebar enabled.
