Default Automatically exported bookmarks.html file isn't showing the folder structure.

Ralph,

It was designed (by Netscape) to be an export/import format, not a
format for viewing as HTML.


But they still kept the .html file extension. Thats not in any way creating
expectations ofcourse (especially within the confines of the webbrowser).
:-(

Netscape would know, when you tried to import it, if it had been
edited since being exported. I have not checked if this feature has
been carried forward into Firefox.


Doesn't seem to be - I do not see anything resembling a checksum in the (FF
v52.5) export file.

That would apply to DOCTYPE html.
This file has a different DOCTYPE.


ackk ... ofcourse.

Regards,
Rudy Wieser
