Can't remove firefox tags

Dunno why but in firefox 3 after adding a tag to a bookmark, later on, I haven’t been able to delete it no matter what I tried… hopefully there IS a solution.

1) download firefox extension: SQLLite
2) run it.
3) at the top right of screen, choose places.sqllite, click go.
4) select Tables -> moz_bookmarks
5) click browse&search tab, and then click on search
6) under “6. title=” box enter “nameOfYourTag”
7) right click -> delete.

It’s funny mozzila dedevelopers didn’t integrate the option for this…
Thanks to people who found a way to fix tags.

Online bookmarks for Mozzila Firefox – Foxmarks

foxmarks

If you use Firefox bookmarks on more than one computer or more than one OS, sure you’ve asked yourself if it would be possible to somehow store your bookmarks somewhere on the internet so you dont have to synchronise your browsers manualy all the time. Well, Foxmarks Firefox plugin is a pretty good solution to your problem. It works in the background of your Firefox each time you bookmark a page uploading your bookmarks change to the server and later on downloading the changes to your other browsers. You can even access your bookmarks from computers that don’t have Foxmarks plugin installed in their Firefox browser by just going to the Foxmarks official page and logging in. There you can enable it so others can or can not see your bookmarks…

Got this weird problem with firefox3 under fresh installations of Fedora and Arch Linux distros. Firefox hanged every time i tried to install a plugin. The solution to this was very simple though.

Edit /etc/hosts and add the following line:
