[tech] View XML Source in Firefox

Try viewing an xml file on firefox: http://feeds.nytimes.com/nyt/rss/HomePage

Mine brings up an option: add it to google reader, or google personalized homepage. I need another option: view source.

The only way I figured out how, was to add the words: view-source: in front of the url. Example:

view-source:http://feeds.nytimes.com/nyt/rss/HomePage

I discovered that by mistake; but honestly, is this rocket surgery or am I stupid? Because I couldn’t figure out another way of doing it.
