Can anyone make this xml display correctly in IE?
All I get is error after error.

I removed the first line and it worked well. What is <WYFD Call Feed>?

[supaduparocka]

This is my error message:

The following tags were not closed: base.
Line: 0 Character: 0

Perhaps you did not understand Fyzbo?

I don't intend to be cynical in any way, shape, or form.

Apparentely I don't, because that code creates the same error.

[Fyzbo]

what program are you using to open it? Just IE or an rss reader?

[supaduparocka]

Ie 7

There must be something other you are trying to do than just reading the file in the browser then?

Are you trying to parse the xml file in a script?

[supaduparocka]

no, I'm editing the xml in the default Angelfire.com editor, and then I hit preview and get that error screen.

[supaduparocka]

nothing...

anybody.

Pretty please, with a sexual favor on top?

[Fyzbo]

When you preview in angel fire right click and say view source. Then paste the source here. There is a chance angelfire is adding code to the xml.

It is angelfire adding the first line then, you can't use it since it is not valid.
<base href="http://www.angelfire.com/wy/WYFIRE/"> must not be part of your feed page.
Like I said in your "other question" thread, find a different webhost, I can certainly help you do that.

[supaduparocka]

OK, Can I host it from a firehouse PC?

[Sequal7]

Of course you can ( Do you have a static IP? not necessary but it makes it alot easier).

The only problem is you can't use the existing domain name but easily fixed since you can do a redirect from your existing site with a very simple meta.
