Assuming you are using the XULrunner version of Conkeror...:

Unfortunately there is not great documentation yet available, although
the conkeror wiki has a fair bit now.

There is perhaps limited help available via the M-x describe-bindings
(C-h b) command.

You can bookmark using the M-x bookmark (k) command.  Like many other
commands such as M-x follow (f), M-x save (s), M-x copy (c), M-x
shell-command-on-file (x), it operates on any of several "object
classes", which are selected by the prefix bindings

m - frames (iframes or frameset frames, if there are none, the
            top-level frame is selected automatically)
n - links (normal A links, also widgets like text fields and buttons are
           included for convenience reasons, but aren't useful for the
           bookmark command)
i - images
* M - math ML nodes, also not useful for M-x bookmark

For bookmark, the default object class is frames.

You can customize the default object class for a command by setting in
your RC file e.g.:

hints_default_object_classes["bookmarks"] = "links";

See the documentation (C-h v) for hints_default_object_classes.

(If someone feels like adding this information to the wiki before I get
around to, that might be very handy.)
