Actually L, you can edit so don't be sad! It is an HTML file. So just change the source code. It is quite easy. Though I reckon there are easier ways to import bookmarks. If you are familiar with HTML or can at least follow the format already evident and copy and paste new links and delete things, you can do the job. This is the sort of thing I did to trial it: duplicate the NS bookmark.html file, change its creator code to your favourite plain text editor (simple text is ttxt) and change away. Return the NS creator code when done and use the duplicate file, throw away original. Or simply open the history.html (it will open NS) and look at source, copy all and paste into Simpletext, call it history.html and replace the old one. It won't double click into browser unless you change creator code, but this is either not necessary or easy to do. David Elmo -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
