At the top of the screen on K-meleon, I only have the URL box and the buttons like back, forward, stop, refresh, home, and print. I do not have any of the menus such as bookmards. I don't know how to access them. Thnx.

same problem here. i did notice that if you click the horizontal bar to the left of the bottom toolbar it will vary what the toolbar will look like. but i tried it on the top one hoping to find a bookmarks menu and found nothing. i love the speed and reliability(Opera is fast but screws with my pc) of this browser but there are no extras(altough all i want is bookmarks). K-Meleon programmers please respond

The programmers don't need to respond to this one, as it is a *well known* problem, and a FAQ at that. You need to look around the site a little more.
Here is the solution to your problem:
"Text Menus Don't Display":

That doesn't fix it. I have windows 98, not 2000 or XP. I have the favorites loaded, and it says to click Edit - Preferences - Plugins, but there is no edit menu at the top of my screen!

I think you may be reading the topic below this one, the one about a slow favorites menu. You want the topic about the missing menu.

Here's what the link

http://kmeleon.sourceforge.net/docs/faq.php#trouble2

says about the missing menu problem:

The text menus don't display when K-Meleon starts.

Users with Windows95 and versions of Internet Explorer older than 5.0 need to download and install the "50comupd" Common Control Library from Microsoft:

I run KM 0.6 under ROMified Win98. After I downloaded and installed this update, the KM menus were fine. Give it a try.
