You are a bit off. The RSSLINK column in your query should be a full
url, not a partial URL.

So you need to modify your query so that you have a column with the
full link, and then pass it to CFFEED.

Don't feel too bad - it's not like you could have the CFFEED chapter
in the Developer's Guide. ;)

You should search my blog too - I've written about a number of CFFEED
"issues" folks should be aware of.
