Subject: RE: Help for Outlook Express IE6
Maybe I miss your point, mack, but I haven't seen any browser that doesn't let you "tree" your bookmarks. The original question was what to do when the "tree" gets so big you can't find the leaves on it.

A recent export to html of my bookmarks shows them all spread out like a web page, with full and readable names for all the sites that are linked, and Ctl-F lets you search quickly. Saved as .txt, or printed, I get a little over 18 pages, which isn't really all that large. That is a little cumbersome though when you try to navigate in the little browser "Favorites" window, but easy to see as a "page." I don't have any problem with the links I use fairly often, but when you forget which branch of the tree you put something on, spreading them out so they're readable - and searchable - pretty much solves the problem.

I'd expect that you'd get a similar output (.htm) exporting bookmarks from almost any browser. Try it with Opera, and let us know if you like it.
