RSS Feed validation error

Hi,\ \ When I try to validate my RSS feed at a validation site, it says:\ \ Sorry\ This feed does not validate.\ \ line 1, column 0: XML parsing error: :1:0: syntax error \ \ ------------------------------------------------------------------------\ In addition, interoperability with the widest range of feed readers could be improved by implementing the following recommendation.\ \ Feeds should not be served with the "text/plain" media type [help]\ \ In addition, an attempt to submit it to a feed, says:\ \ Error: Mandatory field 'title' is missing!\ \ Please advise on what I'm doing wrong. Everything is filled out in the admin area and the list seems to run fine from my admin panel.\ \ Thanks.

Re: RSS Feed validation error

That page you referenced is the page where I got the links from. Actually, I tried your demo link and it does exactly the same thing as my link.\ \ I used all that have working links on that page (many of those links are no longer valid). Here are some of the sites I checked:\ \ http://www.feedvalidator.org\ http://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi\ http://www.rss-network.com/submitrss.php\ \ They all give a similar message whether I use mine or yours. It simply says there's an error and will not accept it.
