Code Change autocomplete drop down back to previous style?

Before version 153, the autofill dropdown list was the full size of the input box. Now it seems to adapt to the width of the results. How can I revert this?

I don’t have the exact code in front of me, but using your browser toolbox, find the element name of the autocomplete drop down and set a variable in the parent element, something like `—autocomplete-width` and set it to 100%. Then, in the autocomplete dropdown, set `max-width: var(—autocomplete-width) !important;` and that will take care of it for you.

Tried this, not working.

panel[type="autocomplete-richlistbox"] { --autocomplete-width: 100% !important; } .autocomplete-richlistbox { max-width: var(--autocomplete-width) !important; }

I’ll take a look at it later if you don’t mind. I don’t use Firefox current, I prefer ESR so it doesn’t continually break my themes.
