Experience with manipulating browser bookmarks and Javascript support

[johnnyb]

Dear all,
has anyone here any experience manipulating browser bookmarks on 3.19? I have been trying to find a way to add bookmarks from my computer to my Kobo by copying them into their respective location in the “Kobo eReader.conf” but unfortunately, all this does is delete all bookmark entries upon disconnecting the device...
Also: does the Kobo browser support Javascript functions?
I've been trying to install the dotepub bookmarklet (I think it would be a nice addition to add sites as epubs directly on the reader, since Pocket does not support highlights and annotations), but so far, to no avail...
Any ideas?

The simplest thing to do is to add a bookmark via the browser and look at the config file. But, from my config file, I have:

[BROWSER_FAVOURITES_GROUP]
http%253A%252F%252Fwww.kobobooks.com%252Flibrary%252Freading.html=
https%253A%252F%252Fwww.goodreads.com%252Freview%252Flist%252F4861938=

The complication when manually adding them is that they have been encoded. It's obvious what these characters are, but there are a few missing that probably need to be encoded as well.

As to Javascript support, sorry, I have no idea. There are some sites around to test function like that, but I haven't used one for a long time.

Thanks! I saw that in the config file and was hoping that someone had more experience with it...
Guess I'll have to try to figure out which ones need replacing myself... if only my H2O would disconnect relibly from my Mac after ejecting... (very often, it doesn't and I need to reboot)
