MySQL to RSS 2.0 [SOLVED] by leito on 02-12-2006 at 09:25 PM

Hi, I'm trying to do a RSS feed for a page I'm doing. The contents are in a MySQL db and I show the contents using PHP. I'm also using PHP to generate the RSS feed.

http://www.doggybio.com/rss.php?id=2 (RSS)

I wanted your opinion in what tags to use or not to use. Actually When trying to read it from Google.com/ig it will show only the title and tell the content is unavailable. And when using Google Reader it will only show the item description and the title. I want a little image to show and more stuff but I don't know how. I search for RSS Especification and I try to follow one I found.

I'm new on feeds so I need all your help. Thanks in advance.

This site looks pretty good: seems to have loads of RSS info.

I've got an RSS feed Thunderbird can't read properly as well, so it's not an isolated problem.

Thanx for your help raceprouk, you should try now, it should work better. I found out that is better to copy the big ones... than following specifications. I study the news.google.com feed and try to use just the same things. And Live.com reads it now. As well as other feeds.
