That's correct, as soon as you close the window the "Always on Top" setting is gone.
To actually get the maximized window overlap the panel you also need to activate "Don't reserve space on borders" in your panel setting.
It's all not elegant I know
Another way to get as much screen estate as possible with Firefox is running it in full screen mode. That might be a lot easier than tweaking all the panel, workspace and window settings. Just hit F11 to activate, and F11 again to deactivate

YES. You have to do all this for this feature. But my point is how can you have this set so i don't have to hit Always on top again and again. Just leave it and away we go. If tyhere is a command i can set or something so when i login and out i don't have to set it again and again

This I found on Google, but haven't tried it myself:

https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/41461/can-you-set-a-program-to-open-always-on-top-by-default-in-xfce4-xfwm4/41464
