3. Name the folder by typing the topic in the narrow white space beside "Name"  and click on "OK."

4. When you get to a page you want to bookmark, click on "Bookmarks, " slide the menu bar to the right to "File Bookmarks, " and click and release on the folder in which you want to place it. It will now be in that folder, rather than a long list of unrelated bookmarks.
