Rubi-Ka Times XML Feed

Earlier I was trying to get this feed to work on our website, and discovered it wasn't reading correctly.

Tried to validate it and it failed.

http://feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?url= ... mes.xml#l2

I don't really know much about this stuff, but hopefully this can be fixed or something. Thanks =)

The XML-file of the RKT wasn't supposed to be a valid RSS-Feed (well, not the current one that is). It's got it's own structure for chatbots and programmers (see here). I didn't stick a DTD on it currently, that's why it simply fails on such tests as your feed-validator.

However, since you say you want it as feed on your website, i guess i'll check on that and make it more compatible.
I'll see that i get it done tomorrow

Heya,
the RKT now has a proper RSS-feed. It's not officially on the site yet (i'll make this look nice later when i have some more time

), however here's the RSS-feed link so you can work with it already:

Thank you!

I think I discovered a little bug though. The feed displays on our website perfectly, but the links for viewing your article do not work.

Here is an example. The Article-UNoC folds

Is located here-

Code: Select all

http://www.ao-universe.com/main.php?site=rp&link=rkt&action=show&id=20#rkt

But the link for the article from the feed directs here-

Code: Select all

http://www.ao-universe.com/main.php?site=rp&link=interview&action=show&id=20#rkt

Which doesn't appear to be valid. It could be an issue with our site, but I think it might be the feed.

Thanks for the info

I switched some IF statement. Now the links in the RSS-feed link correctly.

(it was late that day and i was dragged away from the computer by my gf

)
