Can bookmarks be organized so the folders are listed first (above) the urls like they are in Internet Explorer?

In Internet Explorer I nest web addresses (urls) inside folders in a folder tree. This is something Internet Explorer actually does quite well. It would really be helpful when you open a folder in the Firefox Bookmarks to see all the folders nested within it listed at the top before any urls that might also be in the folder. If anyone knows how to do this, I'd sure appreciate knowing. Thanks.

The extension SortPlaces gives you many options on how to sort folder, the urls within folders, the urls not in folders, and the bookmarks toolbar items. I use SortPlaces for the almost 4,000 bookmarks that I have within and outside of many, many nested folders.

You need to update your plug-ins. It is important to keep them updated due to continuing security fixes and improvements in those plug-ins:

  • Macromedia Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 11.5
    • new security release 08/24/2010
  • Adobe PDF Plug-In For Firefox and Netscape
  • Next Generation Java Plug-in 1.6.0_20 for Mozilla browsers
  1. Check your plugin versions: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
    • Note: plugin check page does not have information on all plugin versions
  1. Update Shockwave for Director
    • NOTE: this is not the same as Shockwave Flash; this installs the Shockwave Player.
    • Use Firefox to download and SAVE the installer to your hard drive from the link in the article below (Desktop is a good place so you can find it).
    • When the download is complete, exit Firefox (File > Exit)
    • locate and double-click in the installer you just downloaded, let the install complete.
    • Restart Firefox and check your plugins again.
