Validating bookmarks
My earlier versions of SeaMonkey had a feature I could set to check a bookmark periodically to see if it remained valid. That appears to be gone in 2.4 and 2.41. I had a separate program that did the same thing, but it no longer works properly with the latest SeaMonkey. (AM Deadlink is the program; it will still check the bookmarks, but will no longer correct them). Is there an efficient way to validate bookmarks. I have about 2000 and doing it by hand is a lot of work. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

I know versions after SM v2.0.14 no longer use HTML format, so I think you will have to export it as HTML before using it. It's every useful.

I have about 2000 and doing it by hand is a lot of work. Per the suggestions of Stamenkov and Hatlak, I installed the CheckPlaces extension. I like the way it works, finding bookmark problems but giving me the option whether to delete a bad bookmark or (via the Bookmarks Manager) allowing me to fix it. -- David E.
