News RSS feed bug ! by TazDevil on 12-15-2006 at 12:48 PM

Hi,

is there something wrong with the RSS news feed of the msgpluslive.net site as i have it in my google (customised) homepage but the path does not qualify and i get links containing google.com instead of msgpluslive.net

for every other feed and on the site i get this
http://www.google.com/news/2006/12/13/scripting-contest-final-stretch/
http://www.google.com/news

can someone reproduce this?
the forums RSS feed as correct on the other hand.

its because the feed uses relative urls, which you're not susposed to use in rss feeds....

hence 2006/12/13/scripting-content-final-stretch turns just gets added onto the end of the current url

We're back to relative paths. You admins need to use version control for your web content :P
