Backing up files using webspace
 

I read with interest the the last post that the person backed up their IE6 favourites using their webspace.

If anyone could enlighten me on how to do this I would be grateful.I thought I would start a new thread on this as it is seperate from the question they asked:dunce:

Copy the folder c:\documents and settings\USERNAME\Favourites to your webspace. Obviously replace USERNAME

Thanks Gary,easy when you know how innit:D

I suppose if I add a new favourite I right click copy and follow the same procedure.In fact I'll try it now:erm:

Another method is to open Internet Explorer and go to File > Import and Export...

In the new window that opens click Next >, select Export Favorites and click Next >.

Select which favourites you want to export, most will want to select all so click Favorites and click Next >.

Ensure Export to a File or Address is selected and choose a location. Click Next > and then Finish.

All your favourites will then be exported to a file called bookmark.htm Upload this file to your webspace and then you have access to your favourites from anywhere :)

How do you do this in Firefox?
Thanks

Browse to your FireFox profile folder as per FireFox instructions. Inside there should be a file called bookmarks.html
