Message-ID: <908630.93188.qm@web31502.mail.mud.yahoo.com> Hi, I'm trying to find a fix for the following problem. One of the feeds I want to have access to is giving me an error: MagpieRSS: Failed to parse RSS file. (Invalid character at line 90, column 299) The feed in question is: http://www-unix.globus.org/toolkit/rss/downloadNews/downloadNews.xml This feed works in other aggregators and the Globus group have confirmed that the feed is valid RSS XML. I switched over to the Subversion copy, but the problem is still there. I saw on the blog that there is another RSS parser that can be made to work with Magpie - does anyone have the necessary fix for Magpie or a patch for a replacement parser? ____________________________________________________________________________________ Looking for earth-friendly autos?

There is a new magpie parser http://magpiephp.com/blog/2006/10/17/magpie-20-alpha-alpha-alpha/ I have been meaning to port over Gregarius to the new magpie, but haven't been able to find the time for many months. Maybe one of these days but don't hold your breath...... There is also Simple Pie. And here is a patch to make it work with Gregarius. http://svn.gregarius.net/trac/ticket/421 Cheers, Sameer From mbonetti at gmail.com Thu Feb 8 10:35:29 2007 From: mbonetti at gmail.com (Marco Bonetti) Date: Thu Feb 8 10:35:20 2007 Subject: [greg-dev] Bug in RSS parser?

I must admit I haven't really looked into MagpieRSS' new (?) pre-pre-alpha, but I find SimplePie very cleanly done and well structured and am therefore more keen to switch to that particular parser, ATM. Their latest beta uses separate classes for the parser, HTTP fetching and cache-handling, which would also make it easier to integrate with our current db-dummy-cached parser model. I'm basically waiting for the SimplePie developers (Ryan, are you reading this? Hello!) to release a final 1.0 version, but will definitely try integrating it into Gregarius, as soon as that happens. -m
