How may I import all my passwords from an HTML file?

Hi, I've been using long time a Firefox extension, Roboform, to manage my passwords. However, I am tired of it, and I would like to use the default password manager from Firefox. The problem is, I've been using Roboform since 2006, so I would have the thousands of passwords. I have my Roboform passwords in an HTML file. Also, if needed, I can edit that file and create a TXT file or a new file with the requirements that better help to my purpose. So, how may I import from Firefox ONLY, I repeat, ONLY the passwords, form an HTML file? Observe I already have my bookmarks, and I don't want to get the bookmarks from other browsers. I only want to absorb all the passwords I have in a HTML file or TXT file, into the default Firefox password manager. How may I do this? Any extension that help to this purpose? May I do this manually? Cheers

I know of an extension named Password Exporter that also includes an import feature. However, you'll need to build an import file in the expected format. Hopefully someone has documented a shortcut other than arduously copy/pasting individual field values...

Is there a faster way?? I do not know.

You might also consider alternate third party password managers that might have an "import from Roboform" method for competitive reasons.
