956399 - Bookmarks import truncates entries with multi-line Description after BR tags, and totally omits entries with empty Location

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[nienufroo]

Attachment: bookmark-exported-from-opera.htm - try to import it and you will see how it truncates the first entry's 2nd+3rd Description lines, and omits the second entry with an empty Location

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:26.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/26.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20131205075310

Steps to reproduce:

Bookmarks exported from Opera as HTML, then imported to Firefox as HTML.


Actual results:

Bookmarks were badly truncated:
1) Only the first line from multi-line Description fields were imported (or actually, until the first BR tag found within the DD tag, which is usually at the end of the first line);
2) Bookmarks with no Location were not imported at all (although such bookmarks were allowed to be created previously by Opera).


Expected results:

ALL bookmarks should have been imported properly! Or at least warning/error messages should have been generated.

current build.
