OT: Firefox -Using same bookmarks under...

....both my XP and Vista installs.
Can I do that without moving a mountain?

In my own little world, it seems akin to using the same Outlook .pst
file, which you simply point to from both Oultlooks

Guess its not that easy. If you can help, I'd appreciate

Hi,

Export your favorites into a bookmark.htm file and then import it into the
firefox installation in the other systems. You are not going to be able to
use a common folder between different installations.

Yeah, comes right down to it, the "2 for 1" isn't really needed
anyway.
Thanks Rick
