    Find folders in FireFox bookmark search?

    I'm trying to search for bookmark folders in FireFox 3.0.12 by clicking on Bookmarks/Organize and then typing the name of a folder in the upper right-hand window. It gives my individual bookmarks but not Folders.

    Any way to search for folder names?

    In the menu select Bookmarks
    Select Organize Bookmarks
    Expand BookMark Menu.

    I'm trying to use the search function in Bookmarks so I don't have to look through folders and folders inside of folders.

    Am I missing something in your post?

    Here's a screen shot of what I'm trying to do. I have a folder named "Right......"

    The search will pick up individual bookmarks but not bookmarks in folders I've created.

    FF bookmark search does not have an option for folders. You can try the "Show Parent Folder" Addon, which just shows a column of the bookmarks' folder.
