I have Firebird .7, but cannot import my bookmarks. I've tried saving them as text, XML, HTML, and something else I cannot remember. Anybody have any luck doing this?

What browser are you trying to export them from?

Safari and URL Manager Pro, why did you import your bookmarks successfully?

you can export safari bookmarks using safari bookmark exporter - there are a few others as well - search version tracker with "safari bookmark" or something like that and you'll see 'em all.

Firebird didn't allow me to change my preferences all at once. I had to do one pane by pane. 5 minutes later, it was in the Trash.

Downloaded Camino again and all is well
