Ffox RSS icon remains inactive for my RSS-enabled website. Why?
My website, http://www.dailydetox.org is RSS enabled. Yet, the RSS icon on the left of the URL field remains inactive when I go to my site. Can someone kindly explain to me why? Thanks in advance. Best, Ande

I don't see the feed defined anywhere in the source. Put the following in the <head> section.
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" href="http://www.dailydetox.org/feed.xml" />

Gingerbread_Man, it worked! You've made a camper a happy camper! My very best wishes to you. A
You can also check the source code of that page as Firefox is flagging some tags for errors.
You see this as red text and you can hover the tag with the mouse to see a tooltip with an explanation.
You are using a semicolon in a lot of cases as a separator for attributes in tags and Firefox sees these semicolons as an separate attribute.
You forgot to close the font tag here and that causes Firefox to flag the closing </ul> and closing and reopening this font tag multiple times (select the text and use View Selection Source to see the generated DOM source).
<div id="navigation"> <ul><font face="Arial"; size="2"> .... </ul></div>
cor-el, many thanks for your remarks! I shall look into rectifying the deficiencies. You guys are just great! My very best. AR
Gingerbread Man, On the strength of the success with Firefox, I'd like to enable my Thunderbird to reliably receive RSS feed messages. I have tried in the past, but it was patchy, and it would stop either after the first abortive (due to errors in the feed.xml) feed attempt, or it would simply stop receiving valid feed. What would you advise I do, or how would you suggest I set up my Thunderbird so that I receive the feed reliably. (I can easily test it using my website.) Thanks in advance and best regards, AR

I use Bamboo Feed Reader in Firefox, so I suggest you give it a go in Thunderbird.
If that's not satisfactory, please ask a new question about this separate issue.
Forum rules aside, I don't use Thunderbird; you're bound to get replies from people who are far more familiar with it if you ask a new question.
Gingerbread Man, you've resolved my RSS problem in Thunderbird. Many thanks! Best wishes. AR
