Safari 6 bookmark list not the bar

[slattery69]

Hopefully im just missing something obvious on the bookmark list, but heres my issue.
Ive filled up the bookmark bar and when i click on one of them that web page opens.
however if i click the bookmark link to open the list when i try to click on one it just moves it to the centre of the safari screen.
if i do the same on firefox or chrome it opens the web page, how can i get safari to do the same , as without this i find using safari quite frustrating to use.

Use the double right arrows in the top far right of the Safari screen to get a drop down list of bookmarks, then just select the one you want and click on it.

ideal thanks for that, do you know if you can create a folder of them to drop onto the bookmark bar and get access by hovering over that?

Not as such, but if you click the open book icon in the top left hand corner you will get a list of all your bookmarks and recently visited sites.

Yes you can do that. When in Bookmarks Manager, there should be a + button at the bottom of the window. Clicking that created a folder for me. You can have the folder appear on the bookmarks bar by dragging the bookmark folder to the top of the list.
