Source: http://engadget.com/category/cellphones/rss.xml This feed does not validate. line 404, column 1805: Undefined named entity: hellip [help] ... Watch movies on your phones… while they're stil ... It is missing the external entity declaration. From your mail you are getting an error about a malformed CDATA section but I can't find a feed with that error. You can do basic checking just by putting the feed URL into Firefox and see if it parses without error. http://engadget.com/category/cellphones/rss.xml will give you an error. -- Jon Smirl jonsmirl@gmail.com
