Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

I can't organise my bookmarks.

There isn't a "Create Folder" option.

Firefox -3 is actually much less user-friendly than Firefox 2, and badly needs updating to bring it up to the level of its predecessor.

Also there is no RealPlayer plugin and the the Totem media player (which doesn't play .ram files from the BBC) takes over on the BBC website and stops RealPlayer working, so that nothing works at all. The BBC is an important institution and its video files are immensely popular and so software needs to take this site into account.

To create a bookmarks folder, you can simply right click in the bookmarks drop down menu where you wish to place one, and select 'New Folder'. You may also do this through the 'Organise Bookmarks' option.

RealPlayer support is a separate issue. You may find this useful: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RealPlayerInstallationMethods

Thank you for your report. I am marking this as invalid as these are support issues, and not a bug.

Changed in firefox-3.0:
