I cannot place saved urls in specific bookmarks folders
I used to be able to place saved urls in specific bookmarks folders,using the small radio button on the right of save bookmarks.It doesn't work now that I installed pclos(linux) 2010,which has the latest Firefox . I can save the url at the bookmarks menu bottom,then I have to drag and drop them in the folder.

In the bookmark popup that appears after you use the "Bookmark this page" command (or click on the bookmark star twice), click on the "Folder" drop-down menu and select "Choose..." Then you can choose a folder to save the bookmark in.
This one-minute video shows the bookmark popup and how to use it.
What happens if you click the second arrow at the far right of the Folder field in the Edit this Bookmark dialog?
That didn't work. Why doesn't the radio button next to folder bookmarks menu work? it used to?I would click it, and a drop down menu of folders would appear, click the desired folder, and the url would be put in the folder highlighted. What can I do to get this button to work?
Hmm, I am also having problems expanding folders in the Edit Bookmark dialog. I get an error in "Tools -> Error Console":
Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80070057 (NS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_VALUE) [nsINavHistoryResult.removeObserver]" nsresult: "0x80070057 (NS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_VALUE)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://browser/content/places/treeView.js :: PTV_setTree :: line 1370" data: no]
I am using Ubuntu 10.04. On my system I see the problem in the latest trunk nightly build, but not in Firefox 3.6.3. It seems like it might be related to the "Ubuntu Firefox Modifications" extension, which is the only add-on I have installed. (The problem went away when I tried disabling the add-on.) I'll experiment some more and then file a bug if there isn't one already...
When I click on the button to the right of edit bookmarks, nothing happens .I didn't have this with the latest firefox, and pclos 2009 minime,but do with pclos 2010.
