Hi.
Some sites, frazpc.pl among them, do offer RSS feed, but they don't provide
suitable data in <head><link REL="rss"...></head> section and just give a link
to .xml file somewhere in the sites' menus. Clicking such link don't open
"Subscribe to Live Bookmarks feed" window as it should, but shows unsupported
source of this .xml file. Maybe fx should look for <rss> tags in .xml files and
in case of finding them, provide a suitable button that would help a user to
subsribe to a feed?

R.
