497626 - Sub Bookmarks Folders

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[Ivens]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; pt-BR; rv:1.9.1b3) Gecko/20090304 Firefox/3.1b3
Build Identifier: 3.1b3

It is possible to CREATE sub bookmarks folders, I have them here and this saves much time when browsing my bookmarks.

BUT, when adding a new bookmark, that screen does not recognize the sub divisions, it "sees" just the level ONE of bookmarks and folders.

If I want to put a book mark in level 2 or 3, etc. I have to insert it in level ONE and later go to Organize Bookmarks and so move it to the correct place.

That's it.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add a BookMark
2. (You must have a sub-folder in bookmarks), try to add the new bookmark there
3. You don't see the sub levels of a bookmark folder.
Actual Results:  
Indeed it is possible to contour this problem, as described above, but it is an inconvinience that the BEST browser in the market will correct soon, I am sure.

Expected Results:  
It is expected that when trying to add a new bookmark in a sub-folder it appears as an option in the respective window.

None.

you should open the folder selector (near the folder dropdown there is another button poiting down, that will allow you to go down to any level you want.

So when you add a bookmark, you only have to click one more button do add it where you want, the simple folder dropdown instead only shows roots and the last 5 folders you have used, as faster shortcuts

Attachment: It works here

It works here.  I even built a bookmarks tree that's 4-deep to show you.  (See attached screenshot).  So resolving WORKSFORME.  Please don't reopen this bug until you have more information about reproducing reliably your specific issue.
