It worked successfully, creating aan HMTL file called MyBookmarks.html Went in to FireFox to import the bookmarks, but it never allowed me to actually select the file to import, it closed immediately upon hitting the "Next" button after selecting the "From File" option. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Bookmarks > Manage Bookmarks... > File > Import 2. Select the From File option in the Import Wizard, click Next 3. Import Wizard closes without proceeding to step 2. Expected Results: Step 2 in the Import Wizard should allow me to select a file. Step 3 should verify if the file is usable... - if not, prompt the user with an error message and a request for an appropriate file, perhaps suggesting what extensions would suffice - if so, import the bookmarks from the file and prompt the user with a message saying the import is complete, and that the user may need to organize their newly imported bookmarks.
