    Live bookmarks in Mozilla rock. :)

    Any chance of getting one for Boards? Say the last 10/20 posts and RSS feed for each board? But a main one would be ok.

    that rss looks cool ... but how do I get that to be a live bookmark?

    On other RSS enabled pages [like my own page] in ff 1.0 pr a little RSS button appears on bottom right when the page has an RSS feed. - How do I get it to understand that ecksor's link is an rss one?

    Its built into FF 1.0PR. Go to manage Bookmarks, then from the file menu in that window there is create Live bookmark. After that just put the URL to the RSS feed in and hey presto.

    If the website is enabled for FF then the RSS link should appear in the status bar as far as I know.

    Thanks.

    Yeh thats right...if you have

    <link rel="alternate” type="application/rss+xml” title="RSS” href="http://www.example.com/index.xml”; />

    in the <head> of the site, firefox will put in the little RSS link on the status bar.
