I want to copy just one bookmark folder with all its contents to another computer. I have different bookmarks on two computers, and want to keep them separate, but I want some folders repeated on both computers.

Export the bookmark to an HTML file and edit that file to only keep the wanted folder and import that file on the other computer.

I suppose this works, in a round about back ass-wards way! FF is supposed to allow copy/paste of one folder in bookmarks, but evidently does not. Annoying. Makes me wanna change browsers again...
