I'm writing my own hard drive HTML for my homepage and need to disable the RSS XML Live Bookmarks prompt so that i can display the feed in an iFrame or DIV.

I do NOT need instructions about how to "view source" from the menu, only how to disable the Live Bookmarks subscription HTML prompt.

Still the easiest way that I can think of is to use the view-source protocol.

Maybe you can load that page code via an XMLHttpRequest.

A good place to ask advice about web development is at the MozillaZine "Web Development/Standards Evangelism" forum.

The helpers at that forum are more knowledgeable about web development issues.
