&Pamela.Roberts; 2003-11-05 3.2 Although you can use &konqueror;'s bookmarks to record the locations of your own files and folders, they are most useful when you are surfing the Web, letting you build up a list of useful sites. To open the Bookmarks menu you may either left click on the Bookmarks menu or use the &Alt;B shortcut. Once the list is visible, you can navigate through it with the arrow keys or with your mouse, then press &Enter; or left click to visit the selected location. To add a new item to the list use Bookmarks Add Bookmark or &Ctrl;B or right click on a clear space in the web page or folder view and select Bookmark this Location from the pop up menu. The Bookmarks list can contain subfolders containing other bookmarks, you can create these with Bookmarks New Bookmark Folder... . To add a bookmark into a subfolder rather than into the main Bookmark list, select the folder from within the Bookmarks list and use the Add Bookmark item in that folder. You can also access your bookmarks from the Navigation Panel. The BookmarksEdit Bookmarks option opens the Bookmark Editor. This shows a tree view of your bookmarks and bookmark subfolders. As is usual for tree views in &kde;, subfolders are shown with a small square at the left of the folder name; if the square contains a + sign left clicking on it will expand the view to show the contents of that subfolder and the + sign will change to -, left clicking on the - sign will collapse the subfolder view. To select an item in the list you can left click on it, or you can navigate through the list by using the Up arrow and Down arrow keys to move around, Right arrow to expand a subfolder and Left arrow to collapse it. You can move an item to a different place in the list by using the normal Drag and Drop or Cut and Paste methods. The order in which the items appear in the Bookmark Editor is the order they will appear in the Bookmarks drop down list. The Insert Insert Separator option can be used to insert separating lines into the list wherever you wish. A new subfolder can be created at the selected point in the list by using the Create New Folder... option in the Insert menu or from the drop down menu you get when you right click on an item in the main part of the window, or with &Ctrl;N To change the name of a bookmark or folder select it then press F2 or choose the Rename item from the Edit menu or the pop up menu that appears when you right click on the item. Similarly, you can edit the &URL; by pressing F3 or choosing the Change URL menu item. The Bookmark Editor lets you import bookmarks from a range of other browsers into &konqueror;'s bookmark list, putting them into a new folder or replacing all current bookmarks. To do this select Import from the File menu. The FileExport option can be used to export &konqueror;'s bookmarks to a &Netscape; or Mozilla browser. If you often use the &Netscape; browser as well as &konqueror;, then rather than importing your &Netscape; bookmarks into &konqueror; it is better to select the Show Netscape Bookmarks in Konqueror Windows item in the Settings menu. If you do this any updates to &Netscape;'s bookmarks are automatically seen by &konqueror;. To select which bookmark subfolder is used to hold the Bookmark Toolbar items select the subfolder then choose Set as Toolbar Folder from the Edit menu. If you are tidying up your bookmarks and have forgotten what a particular web page is, you can easily open it from within the Bookmark Editor by right clicking on the item and selecting Open in Konqueror from the pop up menu. If you just want to check that the &URL; is still valid select Check Status instead. Don't forget to save your changes with FileSave or &Ctrl;S before you leave the Bookmark Editor.
