Here is a code I got made for RSS feeds to FR....

You can see what it looks like on my site Patriotedition.com

---------------

Just place this code on your website where you want the feeds to show...

By the way... I have one for Drudge, too, but I won't link it to my site out of respect. As clicking on the articles HE posts on his site will take you to articles OFF his site - without ever having to go to drudgereport.com - but I don't think it would be right. If he is the one putting up the articles, he should get the credit.

But FR is different, because it links to FR itself.

That's how I see it, anyway.

I'm using FIreFox 1.0 on a Mac and when I link to the FR URL you provide I get a page with HTML and text with an error message at the top: "This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below."

You just answered your question. :)

The reason it shows up like it does in Firefox is because Firefox is not capable of formatting RSS newsfeeds. You'll need an RSS Newsfeed reader or Thunderbird. Internet Explorer, like Firefox, just show code in webpages when it doesn't recognize the HTML tag or doesn't know what to do with it.

I think the new thing is he is utilizing a new standard that tells a browser the website offers a feed for that page.

Yup. The orange RSS icon appears in the lower right hand corner of the Firefox browser when you come to a page that has RSS Newsfeed capability. If you click on that icon, and you have Thunderbird (the Mozilla email client), it will add that page to your subscription in Thunderbird.

I'd noticed some of the orange "XML" tags on some of the Yahoo! News webpages earlier. I guess it's maybe a way to get people to "repackage" Yahoo's news and maybe this causes "traffic" back to their site (and more revenues?).

Yahoo is just but one such source where you can get real time news delivered to your newsreader. They also offer the ability for website desigers and bloggers to have that news appear on their webpages and blogs. During the Presidential campaign season, I had political news headlines appear on my website, and it was real time. Just clicking on a link would take you to the sourced article of the headline.
