Maybe Galeon made a mistake. You can examine bookmarks.html in a text
editor and correct it. You'll see that it is basically regular HTML
but starting with <!DOCTYPE NETSCAPE-Bookmark-file-1>. It uses nested
definition lists for all bookmarks. Some tags have non-standard
properties such as FOLDED ADD_DATE LAST_VISIT LAST_MODIFIED but they
are optional. You can delete all of them if you don't mind losing that
information. A programmable text editor such a emacs can be handy here
if you have many bookmarks. A minimal bookmarks.html can look like
below. For me, importing such lists worked. - Daniel
