Google provides the bookmarks in 3 ways.
Method #1 is an xml feed. The problem with this is it doesn't include notes
Method #2 is an rss feed. The problem with this is it only includes http and
https links (maybe a few others) and excludes links like you are having
problems with.
Method #1 & #2 return 1000 items per request
Method #3 is a json feed from google notebook. The problem with this is it
only includes 20 items per request. There is a num parameter in the query,
but it ignores that. This means it would take a long time to download the
bookmarks.
Method #4 uses the gdata notebook api and the unfiled notebook. The problem
with this is it only works with publicly published notebooks. I don't
believe that is the cas

There is no good way to get google bookmarks, I wish google could just fix
that one problem for each method.
GMarks uses method #2 btw.

I guess Google hasnt actually ever seen this as a problem.<br>
<br>
Using the direct IP doesnt work so well with named virtual hosts.<br>
Will look at using fully qualified domain names, where possible.<br>

&gt; &gt; Hi<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; I think I remember seeing something about this before, but I just<br>
&gt; &gt; wanted to double check.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; I have some Google Bookmarks that are not available via the general<br>
&gt; &gt; internet, because they point at local web servers, like<br>
&gt; &gt;<a href="http://sugar/SugarSuite/" target="_blank">http://sugar/SugarSuite/</a>.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; I add the Bookmark via the &quot;Add GMarks(Bypass add bookmark window)&quot;.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; I can see the Bookmark in the side window, and it works.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; I then alter the label, using the right-click &quot;Add New Labels...&quot;<br>
&gt; &gt; option. &nbsp;I go to the label, and can see the Bookmark and it still<br>
&gt; &gt; works.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; Then I select the Refresh option from the GMarks dropdown menu, and<br>
&gt; &gt; the side scroll refreshes. &nbsp;The Bookmark is still there, however, the<br>
&gt; &gt; link no longer works. &nbsp;When I look at the properties for the Bookmark,<br>
&gt; &gt; the URL is about:blank.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; Actually, just trying again, and I dont even need to do the new label<br>
&gt; &gt; thing. &nbsp;Simply adding a bookmark, and then doing a refresh seems to<br>
&gt; &gt; result in the bookmark &quot;loosing&quot; its URL.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; If I go to Manage Online, the URL is there, but it seems to have had<br>
&gt; &gt; its http:// stripped from the front.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; If I add the Bookmark manually via the<br>
&gt; &gt;<a href="http://www.google.com/bookmarks/?hl=en" target="_blank">http://www.google.com/bookmarks/?hl=en</a><br>
&gt; &gt; link, a similar thing happens. &nbsp;Is this Google seeking twisted justice<br>
&gt; &gt; by not sending proper URLs for websites that it cant access?<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; I&#39;m using GMarks 0.9.9 and FF3.0.1<br>
