Trouble

Q) Is there a need for the of the xmlrss2-template anymore? - eugenandreas@yahoo.de

Bugs

  1. If your posted item contains a character like �, the rss feed cannot be displayed properly in mozilla. In IE it works quite well... - EugenAndreas

I’ve discovered that this was problem of Mozilla not being able to display it properly. The error was caused by “Umlaute” like � � � � and it messed up with “& u u m l;” etc. But with the xml-rss2.php everything just works fine.. - EugenAndreas
