Oh, okay, in FireFox. Well I have read something about how the tag we now have - <LINK rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="XML" href="http://www.sitelibrary.net/portal/webapp.xml"> - is for browsers like FireFox and newsreaders to pick up that there is an XML feed and where it is. So I think if we use that tag on all the pages, we will cause a problem for peoples' bookmarks for news feeds. So maybe we should set that tag up to appear only on the front page, or on other pages later, but only if we have a special feed for that page. Not site wide. I'm glad you noticed this now because we are working on the XML concept in the beta forums for the next version. It's an important thing to get right IMO.

Now that will be the day!
I got a new kitty today so I did have to take some time off the internet to play with her, and will keep needing to do so until she gets big enough to go outside and find something else to play with.
Something happened to my other little kitty. I'm not sure what. She simply disappeared the other day. So I went to the Humane Society to see if she was there and found this other kitty. So that's my new one. She's very cute.
She doesn't understand anything about XML though or why I keep wanting to try to figure things like that out. She probably has a point there.

Cat's are cool. Wish I wasn't allergic to them though.

Funny.

*update* Hey, you can have multiple RSS Feeds, using the link rel thing in the head. I think that's where Firefox and rss readers, etc get the title from. For an example, I know it's done on LinuxQuestions.org
