Hi everyone:Having been kicked out of the forum twice over the past 18 months by a buggy program (Nels swears it isn't personal), I've now lost all my bookmarks for the second time. OK, so I'm a slow learner. No more bookmarks for me. I highlight, cut and past to a word file.Perhaps this will help someone else. This forum is the greatist asset of all to the hobby, in my opinion, and it's a shame to save the wisdom of all contributors only to have it dissappear in a glitch.Mark A Southern Railway Fan
Another way to save large threads with loads of valuable information is to go to file - save as - put the name to want to remember it by and shoose as file type Web Archive, single file (*.mht) This saves it just as if you were still looking at the webpage itself and takes remarkably little space.This thread so far, for example, is under 100kbBill
Check your browser's capability to export bookmarks. The bookmarks in IE can be copied to a floppy or CD R/W. Some browsers can automaticly export bookmarks as links in a Hypertext Markup (Web) page on your local hard drive too. This "Bookmark Page" can then be copied to removeable media.
Slight confusion on the word bookmark I think. He doesn't mean the bookmarks or favourites in IE or whatever but the bookmarks on this forum (see top left of this page) where you can mark a topic for future referral and this is logged on the sites server.Bill
