Copying Safari Bookmarks to Firefox - I like to use both browsers!

I was looking for an "Import Bookmarks" function in Firefox so my Safari and Firefox bookmarks will be the same. I like to use both browsers since they sometimes operate differently with various websites. An example: HP Velotechnik in Germany manufactures high end recumbent bikes and trikes. They have a "Configurator Tool" that only opens in the latest version of Firefox. It will not open in Safari. ( A Java problem, I think) I am running Mac OS 10.7.2 on both an iMac and a MacBook Pro.

The question is how do I import my Safari bookmarks into Firefox.

Thanks,

Nick Prahl

Thanks for your help. It worked as described.

An aside: The drill down was not all that intuitive for me. It would have been easier for my simple mind to have the "Import" functionality at a higher level. "Show all Bookmarks" leads to a screen on the Mac that requires quick understanding of icon buttons which are not that obvious..... maybe more obvious to younger brighter minds!

Thanks again.
