Hello everyone, I am a bit confused with the XML markup the controller  
generates in an rails scaffold, because I can’t see it. For example, I  
create a post scaffold then I go to [http://localhost:3000/posts](http://localhost:3000/posts) but I  
can’t see the RSS icon on the nav bar on Firefox, neither in Chrome  
with an extension. Any trick for that, did I make any mistake?

Thanks previously,  
Rodrigo Alves V.

yep  
this first mistake  
rails generate only api(xml, json) and html scaffold, rss its subs of  
xml, but not the same, u should u own write rss.xmlbuilder with rss  
schema definition, or use some plugins, such as atom feed, and so on  
the first mistake, if u wanna that u browser show u the “rss” link u  
shoud add alternate link to your headers
