Message: [QUOTE="Andy Dingley, post: 2023663"] This is pretty easy, although it's less than obvious. To make Firefox recognise an RSS feed "the easy way" then the HTML must contain the following <link> (or something like it). <LINK title="WCATWC Tsunami Events RSS" href="[URL]http://wcatwc.arh.noaa.gov/rss/tsunamirss.xml[/URL]" type=application/rss+xml rel=alternate> There aren't any such links on the pages you cite (nor should there be) but if you follow the links from the main list on [URL]http://www.weather.gov/rss/[/URL] Then you'll find a page such as this, which is specific to one particular newsfeed [URL]http://wcatwc.arh.noaa.gov/info/tsunamirssabout.html[/URL] If you now look at the Firefox address box you'll see a square orange RSS icon up there. Click on that and you can add a "Live Bookmark" to it, the crudest sort of RSS reader that Firefox includes by default. The trouble is that you can only have one link like this per page, so it's hard to give lists of them -- you have to build the site with a page for each. If you use the Firefox Tools | Extensions menu and then look for more free downloadable extensions, then you'll find RSS extensions for Firefox that are much friendlier to use and more powerful. These have their own ways of adding feeds, but there's usually an option to just paste in the feed's own address. [/QUOTE]
