i have a bit of java script from bookmarklets (google will find it) which
goes up one directory
ive never felt the need to do a mozilla skin for it but i might do it
eventually and give myself an UP button

actually here it is
just create a shortcut with this in it
javascript:void(location.href=location.href.substring(0,location.href.substring(0,location.href.length-1).lastIndexOf('/')+1))
