RSS feed problem?

Post by dianna_wills »

My blog (http://blog.nurdiyana.com) is syndicated in Livejournal at http://www.livejournal.com/~nur_diyana/ (using rss2.0). There seems to be a bug.

The rss feed (in http://blog.nurdiyana.com/rss.php?version=2.0) seems to have turned upside down? I mean, should the latest post be on top (like rss v1.0)? And there is only 3 entries printed?

Oh yeah, could it be that http://blog.nurdiyana.com/index.php?/ar ... -guid.html is not printed on the Livejournal as a result of this error/bug?

And that the LJ prints 3 same entries in a row.

Hi Diana!

Your RSS feed is perfectly fine and validates; the order is right in the RSS feed (latest entry first, oldest entry last).

It is LiveJournal that bugs/messes up with your feed -- since I don't know LiveJournal, I would kindly ask you to mail them for support.

Reading your feed with bloglines.com or my RSS Bandit reader makes no problem, so it's really not your Feed...

Regards,
Garvin.

I seriously think there's something wrong with http://blog.nurdiyana.com/rss.php?version=2.0 !

There are only 2 items (or entries in that rss). And the 2nd Nov entry is missing from the rss, and the 1st Nov entry to have stucked there permanently.

Why?

Compare this to http://blog.nurdiyana.com/rss.php?version=1.0 will you?

Dianna, I fetched your RSS 2.0 with the Liferea news reader. There are 14 entries, And both entries from 2 Nov are there. Try another RSS feed reader, eg, Firefox (it can read RSS), and see it for yourself.

I agree with Garvin that It's LJ that's at fault here.

Dianna, I can only agree to Little Hamster. Open your RSS feed simply inside your Firefox browser and compare the XML/HTML output; it will be basically the same. All entries are there.

Combined with your CSS problem, I begin to think that you may have troubles with your online connection in terms of caching old files/results or delivering wrong content?!

Garvin.

Oh wow. You are right! IE problem (reading from cache and somehow it was not properly displayed). Forced refresh solves it (and through the Firefox).

Thanks guys. And Garvin who helped me with the Installation problem!
