Do you know ahead of time approximately which grouping of Bookmarks you will be dealing with, e.g. 'they are all from Bookmarks that I will gather during today's browsing session'. If so then at the beginning of the session create a Bookmarks folder and save your Bookmarks there. Then at the end they will all be in one place and you can sort them and it will be easier to select the groups to delete . It isn't a clean solution, but should make things easier. Definitely easier than Dump Edit Reload. -- Rostyk ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

I was going to add that it might also be worthwhile looking into the 'CheckBookmark' add-on. However when looking to provide detailed information regarding the add-on, I came across the authors websit: http://www.andyhalford.com/index.html [So long Mozilla and thanks for all the fish] quote If you are here looking for any of my extensions (SyncPlaces, SortPlaces, CheckPlaces or SearchPlaces) then I'm sad to inform you that these are no longer available. Unfortunately I do not have the time or the motivation to continue to support these in light of the close-minded, short-sighted and increasingly inflexible organisation that Mozilla has become. /quote What a sad state of affairs... ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
