Hi!

another qiuestion:

How to open the Bookmark Library in several tabs or windows, each with another folder view? It open only in ONE Library window/tab, and when you want to copy or move bookmarks, it is very unpractical to each time scroll down the left sidebar to find the foldersa and subfolders.

Enhancements: 1. ALLOW LIBRARY TO OPEN IN AS MANY TABS AND WINDOWS AS YOU LIKE 2. MAKE THAT THE SEARCH LIBRARY FIELD ALSO INCLUDES FOLDERS IN SEARCH RESULT LIST 3. MAKE THE LIBRARY APPEARING AND BEHAVING LIKE MAC FINDER WINDOWS !

thanx !

Hi

No need to go all caps on us, we are happy to help without the shouting!

I do not know MacOS, but the feature you are describing is a result of Safari being an Apple product on an Apple operating system. Firefox does not have quite the same level of integration with the different operating systems on which it runs, but we certainly do our best to deliver a premier web browsing experiance.

You can use a chrome URI to open the Library in a tab, but I don't know if there will be conflicts or possible database corruption if you open a lot of instances, so use this at your own risk.
