Hi,

don't know about vanishing ones, but I had just a problem of moving =20
bookmarks and having them turned automagically into another entry (or =20=

even folder)... And I remember having had that problem way back when =20
(OW 4?). I kind of remember that it was some weird entry in the =20
bookmark file which messed up the internal bookmark database....

My 'quick' solution:
- Quit OmniWeb
- Go to Home -> Library -> Application Support -> OmniWeb 5 (or =20
shorter: ~/Library/Application Support/OmniWeb 5/)
- drag out "Bookmarks.html", "Bookmarks.html~", "Favorites.html", =20
"Favorites.html~" to somewhere else
- (possibly archive/compress those four files, just to have a safe =20
backup copy)
- Start OmniWeb
- Go to the Bookmark page (Command-B)
- Delete all automatically created bookmarks in "Personal Bookmarks" =20
and "Favorites"
- Import Bookmarks "Bookmarks.html"
- Go to "Imported Bookmarks" and drag all bookmarks into "Personal =20
Bookmarks"
- Delete "Imported Bookmarks"
- Import Bookmarks "Favorites.html"
- Go to "Imported Bookmarks" and drag all bookmarks into "Favorites"
- Delete "Favorites"

This way, the internal bookmarks database and consequently the newly =20
created "Bookmarks.html" and "Favorites.html" appear to be sanitized. =20=

At least for me, everything works again :-)

Cheers, Kei.
