    Is there a way to merge Firefox bookmarks?

    I have two computers, one I use all the time has most of my bookmarks, and the laptop has some, but there are bookmarks that are on one and not the other.

    Is there a way to merge the two together? I know I can set up individual users and just go back and forth, but that is a PITA if there is an easier way to do it.

      Not sure about any "merge" features, but you can always add them into the bookmarks.html file which is located somewhere like C:\Documents and Settings\USER\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\SOME.PROFILE.FOLDER (where USER is whatever windows login you're using).

          hmmm, that is an idea . . . thanks, not sure why I did not think of that . . . of course, then I need a proggy to remove duplicate lines of text, but that shouldn't be too difficult.

          How about bringing the stored passwords?

                      Bookmarks Synchronizer for Firefox.

                      Bookmarks Synchronizer is a Mozilla Firefox extension that let you connect to an FTP/WebDAV server and synchronize your bookmarks that are stored in an XML file. Setup is easy; just write in your FTP/WebDAV server address, username, password and a name for the XML file.

                      Fling.com doesn't steal your traffic and sales unlike some other dating companies. I promote them, and so should you!

                          You shouldn't be using FireFox. It's probably the worst browser I've ever seen in my life.

                              There's an extension for just about everything.

                                          It rocks... and with the new extensions and phising protection it is getting better and better every day

                                                  I use Roboform (www.roboform.com) to keep track of my passwords. If you get an USB U3 memory stick and put roboform U3 on it you'll always have your passwords ready to go.

                                                      Yeah, I used to use it, but it is a pain to setup (or used to be).

What about two computers in LAN, without FTP server installed on any. And how to make that xml file of bookmarks... AS far as I can see bookmarks is HTML file, not XML ?

                                                                      More info about this one would be appreciated...
