Earlier forms of toolbars were defined by the programmer and had set functions, and thus there was no difference between a toolbar with buttons or just a row of buttons. Most modern programs and operating systems however, allow the end user to modify and customize toolbars to fit their personal needs. Some prominent examples of customizable toolbars are panels of the [[GNOME]] and [[KDE]] [[desktop environment]]s, functions of which range from expandable menus and buttons for applications, window lists, notification areas, clocks and resource monitors to volume controls and weather report widgets. |

Construction of the cathedral began in the 12th century, but was not completed until the 16th century. Defects in the original design and construction had to be corrected in the 13th century, in which the architect Gautier de Vainfroy was much involved. In the later 13th century work was often interrupted due to lack of funds, a problem removed by the generosity of [[Charles IV of France|Charles IV]] in the early 14th century. Further progress was interrupted by the [[Hundred Years' War]] and occupation by the English. |

Third-party toolbars for browsers are best known for adding functionality and ease-of-use options to the end user. While the browser itself handles basic browsing navigation (Back, Stop, Reload, etc) using its own toolbars, external toolbars often add additional functionality to browsers (additional search fields, form-fill, links back to popular sites. etc) |

== Controversy == |

Although third-party toolbars generally provide functionality for the user, they can introduce security flaws in the associated browser. Some toolbars are created for this specific purpose. Posing as Search Bars, these persistent [[Trojan horse (computing)|Trojan Horse]] programs act as a "foot in the door" to other viruses and [[spyware]], in addition to bombarding the user with advertisements. Another common attribute of these toolbars is the fact they cannot be disabled or uninstalled by conventional methods provided by the associated browser or [[Operating system]]. Conversely, many browser toolbars are harmless. |

Defects in the original design and construction had to be corrected in the 13th century, in which the architect Gautier de Vainfroy was much involved. In the later 13th century work was often interrupted due to lack of funds, a problem removed by the generosity of Charles IV in the early 14th century. Further progress was interrupted by the Hundred Years' War and occupation by the English.
