but control i opens all the bookmarks, without all the history that i don't
want.
and with control i the bookmark list will stay opened until you close it.
it also has the search function that lets you search through the entire
bookmark list
you can highlight multible bookmarks for deletion if you want and it will stay
opened.
etc.
i have used control i for about 20 years and offers more options then then alt
b does.
but i also said, with control i , i have to turn the pc virtual cursor or
browse mode in win eyes off first before i open the bookmark list or firefox
will hang.

which hot key are you useing to open the bookmark list?
with me i have to turn browse mode off with window eyes and with jaws the pc
curser before i do this. or firefox will hang and speech will be lost until
firefox comes back. that if it does at all. grin
but if you press control i it will open the bookmark list and it will stay
opened until you close it again with control i.
you can edit,move or delete bookmarks you don't want anymore just by
highlighting them and press the delete key.
also in this list you can search for bookmarks in the search box.
one thing i do when i save bookmarks i give them my own description at the
begginning of the line before i save them. like clothes, cd, blind product
etc.
this makes it a little easier to find the bookmarks you want.

Hello list,
Screen reader issues with the coming Firefox 57 aside, I know some add-ons
are going to stop working regardless when these pending problems are
resolved.
For years, I�ve been using the PlainOldFavorites extension and while I
haven�t actually used IE in forever, I�ve always liked IE�s favorites layout
simplicity
In any event, I�ve recently been trying to work with Firefox bookmarks and
am dealing with a frustrating issue. There appear to be some bookmarks that
no matter how much I try to delete/get rid of them, they�re still showing up
in my bookmarks menu. This is making jumping to a bookmark by the first
letter tedious and much longer than when working in IE�s favorites layout.
They seem to be showing up right after the most recent bookmarked option. Be
it deleted folders or unsorted bookmarks.
Was just wondering if I�m missing something on how to better sort the
Firefox bookmarks menu or if this is just going to be a part of dealing with
this feature? I do already have bookmarks set to sort by name.
Using the latest JFW 2018 recently released and am on Firefox 56.X. I�ve
already disabled the automatic update in Firefox and will only update once
the noted screen reader issues are finally resolved.
Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Cristobal
