Sometimes the url of a webpage I have saved spontaneously disappears from the "location" column of the bookmarks organizer page, although it is still in the url field at the bottom of the page. The normal process of clicking on the bookmark and hitting delete doesn't work, so the bookmark becomes a useless phantom whose corresponding webpage cannot be accessed by clicking on the bookmark. How do I delete such a phantom bookmark?
