Where Are Current Firefox Bookmarks Stored?

Where in 10.6 are my current Firefox bookmarks stored?

I want to get certain of them copied so when traveling I can quickly access certain websites. But I can't find current bookmarks.

At Home>Library>Application Support>Firefox I do find four bookmark files, but all are from 2 years ago when I set up this computer; I also find a Bookmarks Backup folder, but it's full of files (the most recent dated yesterday) that I can't open.

They are located in ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox in places.sqlite in Profiles inside the xxxxxx.default folder. That's in your user library. Quit Firefox first, then make a copy. They can be moved into any other Firefox.
