I cannot view the podcast pages on www.gcnlive.com.
I cannot view the podcast pages on www.gcnlive.com. This happened as soon as I installed FF 3.6.4. This is a very basic function, downloading podcasts. I cannot believe they released another buggy update.
URL of affected sites

Do you see the XML file? The server sends the feed file with the wrong application/xml encoding instead of application/xhtml+xml --- Tools > Page Info > General
Don't try to blame the server. This site worked fine till FF update. FF should check compatibility before releasing updates. This is the 3rd FF update in a row with bugs. There are other browsers, they don't update every other week, why does FF unless it is badly coded??
You didn't answer what you see if you visit that website.
If you don't see anything then try: "Clear the Cache": Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now" "Remove the Cookies" from sites that cause problems: Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes). See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems and Troubleshoot issues with plugins like Flash or Java to fix common Firefox problems
On top of the page: This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below.
The tree has hundreds of lines, most makes no sense to me, except the http links, which if I paste them into the address line, will open the podcast page.
Tried the cache clear, did no good. Don't see any cookies from the site who's page wont open properly
Paste this code in the location bar and click the feed button that will appear:
data:text/html,<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Add Feed" href="http://gcnlive.com/podcast/alex/pcast.php" />
You can turn this into a keyword bookmarklet (rss):
data:text/html,<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Add Feed" href="%s" /><b>Click the <u>RSS Feed button</u> on the location bar</b>
This is only gonna fix this one particular link, right? There are many other links I download from this site and others. I would really like to make things work for all links, I don't wanna do this for every link.
Thanks for the effort. If you ain't on the Mozilla payroll, please excuse my wrath. Volunteers don't deserve the grief... I don't want to subscribe, I want to dl on demand, with all my links. There are lots of other sites with same problem. I don't want 1000 bookmarks and subscriptions. Can we try a real fix?? Cometbird works properly, shouldn't regular FF. What kind of update removes features that thousands of sites depend on? Can I roll back without losing settings and bookmarks?
Also, I had my FF set NOT to update auto after all the probs with the last few updates and the associated Java/Flash bugs. Somehow it set itself back to auto update, didn't ask permission and updated to an unwanted FF, just after I finally got FF3.5 sorted out. This happened with all the 3.6.x updates. THIS IS VERY BAD, I CONTROL MY PC, NOT MOZILLA!! Have a nice day!
If you use the keyword version then all you need to do is place the keyword and a space in front of the url and press Enter.
rss http://gcnlive.com/podcast/alex/pcast.php
A click on the RSS button will then show a formatted list instead of the tree view.
It is really a problem with misconfigured servers that send an incorrect content type.
