This url produced the feed OK for me in Tiki 1.9.8.

This one worked in 1.10 but not in 1.9.8, for me.... This was with different servers and operating systems and I'm not sure what else, so don't know what variables are involved.

It's cold comfort, but this feed worked OK in my Tiki 1.10 installation, but I got error messages in 1.9.8. I don't know what coding differences there are between the versions, but hope things will get sorted out.

> As you can see on my home page, I was able to get other RSS feeds working properly and figured out how to get them up there with permissions so non-registered viewers could see them. :-) But this one RSS feed above seems to be the sticky wicket. If it doesn't work - so be it. I know how to format them now.

I noticed Safari was listed as a client that supports feed:// at the Wikipedia page on this subject.
