I use Google Bookmarks and all of my bookmarks are organized into lists.

When i hit export.. this is the file. and this is all i get:

<!DOCTYPE NETSCAPE-Bookmark-file-1>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<TITLE>Bookmarks</TITLE>
<H1>Bookmarks</H1>
<DL><p>
</DL><p>

How could I export my Google Bookmarks ?

@downvoter downvote me after you can solve my problem – Pacerier Jul 26 '11 at 21:16
Are you sure you are not using lists? – phwd♦ Jul 26 '11 at 21:38
@phwd what do you mean? of course i'm using lists – Pacerier Jul 27 '11 at 17:08
It's probably because your question leaves out a lot of information. You only now mention in the comments that you're using lists. Where is that in the body of the question? – Eight Days of Malaise Jul 27 '11 at 19:13
@Eight it's weird to mention that I use lists since, well don't everyone uses list !? – Pacerier Sep 12 '11 at 9:15

The problem is that you are using lists.

You cannot export lists.

As seen in the following example

A list for waffles

<!DOCTYPE NETSCAPE-Bookmark-file-1> 
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> 
<TITLE>Bookmarks</TITLE> 
<H1>Bookmarks</H1> 
<DL><p> 
<DT><H3 ADD_DATE="1269610508467000">Unlabeled</H3> 
<DL><p>

do you mean you don't use lists? how do you organise your bookmarks then? – Pacerier Jul 28 '11 at 8:04

Works for me. This is what I did:

  1. Go to https://www.google.com/bookmarks/
  2. Select "All" so that all bookmarks are checked
  3. Click "Export bookmarks" in the left column
  4. Download HTML file with bookmark data

that's exactly what i did. but it'sn't working – Pacerier Jul 26 '11 at 21:15
No need to select all. Export bookmarks seems to export all bookmarks. – phwd♦ Jul 26 '11 at 21:32
