RSS for Flyertalk feeds using Firefox
I use firefox and have filled my toolbar full of RSS feed bookmarks - this provides a great set of dropdown menus that are always up-to-date with the latest news articles from bbc, abc, cnn, seattle times, slate, etc. So i've tried to add the flyertalk Mileage Run forum as a bookmark but FireFox doesn't like it - it just shows up as a link. Has anyone been able to get this to work?

Just "discovered" RSS feeds myself...thanks for the address point!
Using pRSSreader on Pocket PC 2003SE. Works flawlessly over GPRS on my i-mate PDA2K. Service provider is T-Mobile.
All the best, James

Unfortunately, FF does not detect FT's RSS feeds, so you have to add them manually, and you can't do it by browsing the feed itself. Open the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks -> Manage Bookmarks), File->New Live Bookmark, then paste in the URL.
