Creating an RSS feed

[hector_sg webforumsuser@macromedia.com]

Has anyone created an rss feed?

I need help. My RSS feed validates at feedvalidator.org but will not display in Mozilla.
currently the file name is "rss.rdf"
If I save the file as "rss.xml" then it displays.
I have been to other sites and files that are "somefeed.rdf" display in Mozilla.

Am I missing something? Is there some code that does not get displayed in the view source?

All the sites I visit I can view the RSS file except mine.


Of all the things I did not know.
I did not know that the most!

Does anyone have an example of creating an rss feed (.xml file) using coldfusion and pulling the info from a db? I'm pretty lost at this point.

Thanks!

This is a nice way to do it....

Hi there - well I did follow Pablo V's step-by-step instructions - and
developed a CFM template that created a RSS XML file.

Then I tried to validate:



<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>

HELP! What did I do wrong?
