I'm trying OPERA browser. For now I have 2 questions. 1-How can i import my firefox bookmarks to OPERA? If I click 'view' >'imports exports' I see 'import netscape/firefox bookmarks' but can't locate my firefox bookmarks when I try it.
2- with the address bar I have to use 'enter' using my keyboard. I don't see the place where I can click with my mouse to get to the address I type in and I don't know how to get that place on the tool bar(with firefox its a little triangle pointing to the right).
Any suggestions

You have to browse to the Mozilla Firefox folder > defaults > profile > bookmarks.html

"with the address bar I have to use 'enter' using my keyboard"

What's wrong with that? Just type in the address then hit ENTER. It's much faster than using the mouse. You should be doing it with IE & Firefox too, & should have been doing it that way for years.

I did what you said and I got 13 bookmark imports but none of them are any of the many bookmarks i have in firefox. One of the13 says firefox bookmarks. If I place the cursor on that one option is open all folder items and that has none of the web pages either. Can't I just get a dropdown list of my bookmarks just by clickin bookmarks on the toolbar somehow? Firefox doesn't have an export function on their 'file' dropdown box, only import

Sorry, I sent you to the wrong place to get your Firefox bookmarks. This is where they are with XP...I'm not sure about WinME:

C:\documents and settings\<username>\application data\mozilla\firefox\profiles\<random string.default>\bookmarks.htm
