A very nice RSS feed to my mind from Court TV.

Dishes the dirt.

Linking to the rss.asp file just puts the text on your screen. You have to go to the site (http://rss.thesmokinggun.com/) and then set up the feed.

Judy,

Interesting, that URL works just fine in Aggreg8 (K-Meleon).

(go figure)

(go figure)Some programs handle things better -- or differently -- than others. Firefox needs to have rss.asp pages set up as Live Bookmarks in order to read them; other browsers can't read them at all.

Judy,

Or you could load an RSS extension in FireFox to handle RSS. Aggreg8, in K-Meleon, is a port of a FF extension to that browser. There are several RSS extensions available for FF, although I've not used any of them, so don't know which ones are good or bad.

I suppose, but I don't use RSS often enough to need an extension myself.
