Yes, the SQL files are supported, otherwise I would not have suggested it. But you can not edit the results-right? Correct. From the AMD Help file: AM-DeadLink can only read and check Firefox bookmarks, it's not possible to delete bookmarks directly from the Firefox database. To delete dead bookmarks from Firefox, you have to do this directly within Firefox. This restriction is required to avoid possible conflicts with the Firefox bookmark database (or also future changes to the Firefox bookmark database). Possible work around: AM-DeadLink also supports the old Firefox 2.x bookmark file format. You can export your Firefox bookmarks to a bookmarks.html file, open and change it in AM-DeadLink and re-import the bookmarks into Firefox. -- Ed Mullen http://edmullen.net/ If a man stands in the middle of the forest speaking and there is no woman around to hear him, is he still wrong? ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

How about . export your bookmarks as a html file, carry out the AM-Deadlink search, if it finds any links dead - delete that bookmark from the html file, then import the edited html file back into the bookmarks file. -- Daniel User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:20.0) Gecko/20100101 SeaMonkey/2.17 Build identifier: 20130320191715 or User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686 on x86_64; rv:20.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/20.0 SeaMonkey/2.17 Build identifier: 20130320191715 ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
Re: Automatic checking for bookmarked sites updates
Here's what SeaMonkey Help says: You can also set SeaMonkey to check bookmarked websites for changes. Open the Bookmarks menu and choose Manage Bookmarks. In your Bookmarks window, click a bookmark. Click Properties. Use the pull down lists and the textfield under Check this location for updates to specify how often you want SeaMonkey to check the bookmarked page for changes. To be notified when the bookmarked page changes, choose from the options in the Notification section. But I can't see any pull down lists. I that me being a retard, or the feature has been really removed from SM? ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Automatic checking for bookmarked sites updates
Hello, guys Earlier versions of Seamonkey (1.x, probably) had a feature that allowed users to automatically check for bookmarked sites updates, every X minutes from Y am to Z pm. (Technically that was done by sending HTTP HEAD requests, afair). I can't find the feature now (using Seamonkey 2.17). Where is it, why it has it been removed(?) and are there any alternatives? Thanks. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
