Was wonderigng if anyone could tell me how to make a backup of my Bookmarks in FireFox. I just got a new job and want to relocate the Bookmark section to home. Thanks

I'm not a FireFox guru...but under bookmarks, there is a 'Manage Bookmarks' link.

Go in there, then in the 'file' menu, there is 'export' and 'import'.

You guys have a lot in common... particularly the ears... between you, you look like a modern-day theatrical mask with the two opposing emotions on it!

A little off topic...but you get an A+ for observation.

Oh thanks, BerksWebGuy! My first A+ in forty odd years... I like your motto. I plan to live forever or die in the attempt... Off-topic is my middle name. Ask anyone with an interest in linguistics ;-)

Bookmarks Synchronizer 1.0.1 (https://addons.update.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?application=firefox&category=Bookmarks&numpg=10&id=14)

I use it to output the XBEL file and import it across Windows, Fedora, OSX.

What I did is change the location of my bookmarks file to the My Documents folder, so when I do regular backups of data I get the bookmarks.

The default location for the file bookmarks.html is in your FireFox profile folder.

I save shortcuts to my desktop, then put them into subfolders inside My Documents. There are topics like PHP, computer help, ecommerce, forms, forums, visual basic and whatever where I found a bunch of sources on the same topic. I could use them in any browser. I never had to worry about transferring my shortcuts. :D
