Hi, I have just downloaded firefox 1.0 yesterday and try to figure what the hype is all about. It has been a wonderful experience as I try to customize the brower to my personal taste. However, there is one function I still don't understand. LIVEMARKS. I was playing around with bookmarks and accidently deleted the "Latest Headlines" that come with Firefox 1.0. I try going to sites like MSNBC or yahoo news, and they have these orangne "XML" button, so I click on it to get the feed but all I get are string of XML codes on the page. Do I need to download another program to look at thest bookmarks? I thought Firefox 1.0 is compatiable. If someone can give me step by step instruction on how to get these feeds would be great since the firefox help page is really vague and I am really new to all of these thank you

"A site is enabled for Live Bookmarks when you see this icon on the bottom right corner of the browser. Clicking on the icon and selecting an RSS feed will bring up the Add Bookmark dialog. Select 'OK' and you will see Live Bookmarks with the rest of your bookmarks. Many people find it especially convenient to save Live Bookmarks in their Bookmarks Toolbar folder." How much clearer could it be? ;-)

Now Jayt don't be so short with this person, or are you being sarcastic? Check out this page, jump, apparently when you click the orange icon by the clock and choose to subscribe it the website puts all the links it wants to in your bookmarks and updates them whenever you go to the page again. Like if you go there 2 days from now those bookmarks will change to new ones, for that day. Ok here's the deal with the orange xml buttons. Like that website says some websites don't tell firefox they have live bookmarks when they do. What you do is right click the xml button then choose properties and copy the address. Then open the bookmark manager (bookmarks > manage bookmarks) then go to File and "New Live Bookmark", when the box comes up paste the address you copied into the "Location" box and name it anything you want. Press ok, You will then have that live bookmark with your bookmarks. I have a page for People that are new to Firefox but this is one thing I don't have on it. As a matter of fact I never used this before, maybe I'll have to put it on my site.

Thanks so much. It now works. I can also drag these bookmarks on the top too. Why couldn't the Firefox webpage have the same info you just told me in layman terme?
