IE7 has a RSS square icon in the upper right corner by the printer icon that is gray if there are no RSS feeds on the page and orange if there are. Firefox 2.0 has a similar Orange icon on its address bar. They work on most sites other than DNN ones. What are plans to get this to work with RSS feeds from DNN.

Mariette made a very useful post on that subject recently and I saved the text locally:

RSS in Internet Explorer 7.0
On the toolbar in IE you will see the RSS icon but on most Dotnetnuke sites this is greyed out. If you want to show your RSS links in Internet Explorer add the following to your default.aspx:
 
<link rel="alternate" title="The title of your RSS feed" type="application/rss+xml" href=http://link-to-rss-feed />
 
You can add as many as you want. If you browse to www.smallbizserver.net you will see a sample of how that works. You should see to RSS entries in the RSS dropdown menu in IE 7.0.
 
In the above I added the RSS links to the default.aspx but you can also add them to your skin.
At the time the example didn't work, but I've just now been back to check and it is working.. so give it a go.

Maybe I'm confused about your reply. In a database driven dynamic web site I don't see manually adding links in Default.aspx for the feeds on each page as a solution. I was hoping that the DNN code would know that there was an RSS feed on the page that it was currently displaying and "do the right thing". Or that it would create link that aggregated all of the feeds within the site.

I think It should be made for each module, I implemented the integration with IE7 for the blog module, you can see the source here:

Hi Dave, yeah that was just to get you going, not to fix the problem in DNN. You're correct of course about DNN and we'll just need to wait for that one.
