Strange behavior: Links in Chrome Bookmark Folder in Google Docs

When I open the Chrome Bookmarks folder in Google Docs on my Fascinate I see all my bookmarks, BUT when I click on them the phone's browser (I'm using Dolphin)  gives me a "lost connectivity" error message OR closes the Google Docs tab and opens my home tab.

 

Can anyone out there duplicate this or make sense of this?

There are some compatibility issues with the browser and Chrome Bookmarks.


Copy and paste the link below into your browser's address bar for more information.

I'm replying to my own original post because I have learned more about this issue that might help others.

 

What I have found is that https:// is being inserted to the address in the bookmark file in the Google Docs file that contains my Chrome Bookmarks.  If I click into the address bar and backspace out the "s" then the URL opens fine.  Before I do that I get a connectivity problem error message.

 

I don't know if this is peculiar to the Dolphin Browser or also occurs with the Samsung native browser.  I will check and come back and post some more...

Things are getting even weirder...The Samsung native browser refuses to open Google Docs...instead it forces the Dolphin browser to open which brings me back to my original problem. I removed the default browser designation from Dolphin and the native browser STILL forces open Dolphin in order to open Google Docs.  Go figure...
