In firefox, if you click show all tabs, the latest headlines resolves to
http://fxfeeds.mozilla.org/ which is a default apache test page.  Looks pretty
unprofessional and not what I'd expect to happen either.

Thanks,

Reproducible: Always

2. open firefox and hit view all tabs

Actual Results:  
apache test page displayed

Expected Results:  
Either not shown the "Latest Headlines" tab or have some type of landing page at
http://fxfeeds.mozilla.org/
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
stage.mozilla.org is fixed.

fxfeeds probably shouldn't have such generic content...   Since the RSS feed
that it's referencing redirects to the RSS feed at bbc.co.uk, should we perhaps
redirect the main URL to the HTML variant of the source of that newsfeed?

Actually, I'm thinking about making it redirect here:

http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/live-bookmarks.html

However, I'm unable to reproduce this with Firefox 1.0 on OS X....   The "Open
in tabs" option is not available in the "Bookmarks Toolbar Folder" in Firefox
1.0 on OS X.  It *was* there in 1.0PR1, but using the Open in Tabs there took me
to fxfeeds.mozillazine.org instead of fxfeeds.mozilla.org, and the mozillazine
version gives me a 403 instead of showing any page at all.
OK, redirect to the "about live-bookmarks" is now in place.  Not sure if that's
the best thing to do with it, but if it is, I guess this is fixed... opinions?
Summary: Website defaults to Apache test page → fxfeeds website defaults to Apache test page
Sounds fixed to me.  Resolving as such.
