Hi All
Just updated to 8.02 and my RSS doesn't seem to come out as a proper web page.

See here: http://www.recreationalflying.com.au/forum/RSS_topic_feed.asp

Any help is appreciated
regards

Thats what an RSS Feed is meant to be.

An RSS Feed isn't an actual web page, it is an XML document, you ten feed it into an RSS News Reader which can then format the XML in any way it see's fit.

IE 7 supports RSS Feeds, as well as Firefox and Opera for live bookmarks. You can also get a plugin for Outlook to have RSS Feeds displayed in that.

Thanks Borg but the funny thing is that when I had 8.01 installed and I clicked the RSS button it came up as a formatted web page with the posts on the left etc Confused.

Currently if viewed in Firefox it comes with just text:
The Recreational Flying Forums  http://recreationalflying.com.au/forum This is an XML content feed of; The Recreational Flying Forums : Last 10 Posts Sat, 27 May 2006 18:40:40 +0000 Sat, 27 May 2006 17:52:52 +0000 http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss Web Wiz Forums 8.02 30 recreationalflying.com.au/forum/RSS_topic_feed.asp  Maintenance & Air.......... (a whole page of it)


 but if viewed in IE it displays:

The XML page cannot be displayed

Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.


Access is denied. Error processing resource 'http://recreationalflying.com.au/forum/RSS_xslt_style.asp'.

Try changing the path in the admin area to your forum to the path you are using with the WWW in it.
