Re: I've tried everything but cant fix my feed.

Bill,
I think that's your opinion and likely the intent of RDF RSS, but RSS 
2.0 specifically allows for markup and style (formatting junk). Many 
RSS clients will display markup and style so that the subscriber can 
read entire posts without having to open every blog in your Web 
browser that he's subscribed to.

When I clicked on the validator URL included, I didn't see any errors 
and the feed appeared to be valid. I can only assume the publisher 
was able to fix the feed before I approved his message.
Thanks,
