RSS Feed Working

The blog RSS feed is now working. Seems the problem was that the XML being generated was invalid, tags were being converted to upper case by Dreamweaver because of some preferences I was playing around with. Fun fun fun. Anyway, it is working now. Links are on the left (for full mode use http://www.forta.com/blog/rss.cfm?mode=full, for short mode use http://www.forta.com/blog/rss.cfm?mode=short). Incidentally, while it was broken no readers could interpret the XML correctly with the exception of Geoff Bowers’ http://fullasagoog.com/ – nice job Geoff.

    Well, they”re broken again 🙁
    The error I get is as follows:
    Feed: Ben Forta”s Blog
    Error parsing RSS XML: ””, hexadecimal value 0x14, is an invalid character. Line 145, position 471.
    Please try to validate this feed. If this feed validates as correct RSS, you can send an error report.

    Ugh, one bad character in there (thank you MS Word). Try now. Click the "RSS Valid" button to check that the feed validates properly.
