That would be the Location bar, which your code implicitly sets to:

location=no

as setting only scrollbars would implicitly turn of other properties. 
Thus, the location bar being visible is due to FF security settings 
(from about ver. 3 IIRC), which do not allow hiding it anymore.

I guess not, although you may remove it from your copy of FF via 
about:config by setting:

dom.disable_window_open_feature.location

to false.
