Re: Parsing Blogger Feeds
What error do you get? A valid feed is, by definition, valid XML, but sometimes white space gets thrown in by the process of downloading, etc. On 3/20/07, Tom Avey [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: A few weeks ago my feeds from blogger quit working.

Re: Parsing Blogger Feeds
If you're using PHP5, you can use SimpleXML to parse your feed. There's a decent explanation at http://blog.stuartherbert.com/php/2007/01/07/using-simplexml-to-parse-rss-feeds/. If you're still looking to move to CF, the look at Ray Camden's RSS.cfc. I don't have a URI, but check riaforge.com or his blog at ray.camdenfamily.com. For your error, though, I just blogged one reason for that (and a solution) at http://musetracks.instantspot.com/blog/index.cfm/2007/3/18/Consuming-an-RSS-Feed-with-ColdFusion. Specifically, look at Issue II. Hope this helps. On 3/21/07, Tom Avey [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: What error do you get?
