Problem with ATOM feeds

[dan1el]

There is an XML parsing error here:

How to fix?

Daniel,

the problem is not with ATOM, the reason is your IMG-code and RSS and ATOM are very picky with special characters:

<img id="image" src="images/20050816014243_die_seagull.jpg" alt="Die, Seagull" title="Die, Seagull | August 17th 2005 - 18:00 | Category: <a href='/photoblog/index.php?x=browse&amp;category=12'>Animals /</a> &nbsp;" />

what is this code? A HREF-LINK inside a image-title??????

if you fix that I am sure your FEED will validate better, CSS as well

[dan1el]

From my template:
<a href="index.php?showimage=<IMAGE_PREVIOUS_ID>"><im g id="image" src="images/<IMAGE_NAME>" alt="<IMAGE_TITLE>" title="<IMAGE_TITLE> | <IMAGE_DATETIME> | <IMAGE_CATEGORY>" /></a>

[dan1el]

Okay, the problem was that <IMAGE_CATEGORY> had links. Still, that is irrelevant.

The PROBLEM is an XML-parsing error:
title='A broken arm doesn't stop me'

the ' in doesn't is making problems. Perhaphs I should use " in the code?

Edit: it seemed that my fix (using " instead of ') worked. I consider this as a bug, since you cannot have ' in your image titles.

Ah, I see, which PP version are you using?

This error is fixed in the next version, Apostrophe in titles etc.

so, in the moment I wouldn't use this character or mask it

[dan1el]

Im using PP 1.4.2.

So until you use 1.5 beta stop adding special chars into titles :P

I am using pp1.5RC (1? i think) and recently experienced this "apostrophe in titles" issue--not in the page displaying the fullsize image, but in the archive page (browse_template) where the title appeared: the page and thumbnails show up fine, no problems, but it will not validate. something to do with the way the <THUMBNAILS_WHOLE_PAGED> tag renders the titles (with single quotation marks)?

<a href='index.php?showimage=46'><img src='thumbnails/thumb_20060514101129_shang.jpg' alt='it's a very deep sea' title='it's a very deep sea' class='thumbnails' /></a>

Not a big deal, fixed by simply removing the offending "it's" but when I came across this discussion here I thought you guys might want to know. Apologies if this is the wrong section of the forum...

Ranko,

thanks. We must check how the Addon for paged archives escapes the title-text.

thanks for the info!
