Web sites list their feeds as a <link> tag in the page heading. If the URL the user enters does not parse as a valid RSS feed, try instead to parse it as HTML. Then, under the <head> tag, look for a <link> tag with rel=alternate and type=application/rss+xml or type=application/atom+xml attributes. If this is found, load the href attribute and use that as the feed address.
