Local HTML Files Into Favorites Filder

T

Tim Weaver

For whatever reason, I've never had a need to do this before. I need
to create a Favorites folder structure to a folder structure on my
local drive so that the Favorites mirror it exactly. It seems like
this should be simple, but for the life of me I can't figure out how
to do it. Is it smacking me in the face and I can't see the trees for
the forest or is there a program that will handle this task?

Sheesh...

I'm not sure, but maybe you have the request backwards.
Did you mean something like
"Local HTML Files from Favorites Folder"?

Does that sound like what you want to do?

Or do you really mean you have a list of links in an HTML
file, and you would like to stuff those links into your
Favorites, which is what your "Subject:" sounds like?


.. . . hmm, I just found a note to myself that says
- - - - - - - - - -
(I exported my IE5 "Favorites" to a file
E:\...\bookmark2.htm
using IE5's "File>Import and Export ...")
- - - - - - - - - -
(The ",,," is details of my awful folder tree that I've
omitted.)

URL: Convert To HTML
Bookmark Wizard
(Freeware)
OS: Windows 9x/ME/NT4/2000/XP
Languages: English
Description: Bookmark Wizard is a little program with a simple wizard-like
interface that generates an HTML page with all/selected links from your
Internet Favorites folder. The links in the resulting page are grouped and
sorted in ascending order like they are in your Favorites folder. You can
specify colors for links and backgrounds, title, caption, etc., for your
page. Also, you can exclude certain folders from being listed. Advanced
users are able to edit the entire page template to customize it further. The
resulting web page can be used as a links page on your homepage; you can
send it to a friend or use it just as a startup page for your web browser
etc. NOTES: This program is not an HTML to Favorites converter, it can only
create a HTML page from Favorites.

There may be other freeware that you'd prefer.
Please forgive me for not searching further.
