Another RSS bug: compatibility
 

Several types of feeds dont work in OW, including the O'Reilly feeds:

[url]http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/feed/13[/url]

and others, for example:

[url]http://pyinsci.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default[/url]

just results in a page of text.

There are lots of RSS-related bugs -- I have reported 3 in the past week. Hopefully they are being addressed in 5.6.

Thanks.

Plus the Daring Fireball combo feed [url]http://daringfireball.net/feeds/combo[/url]

a major limitation in OmniWeb is that it doesn't support Atom (both of these feeds are). I don't know about the daringfireball combo feed, though his free one works for me.

The subscribed feeds, when taken individually as full and linked (instead of combo), work fine.

Any chance of an RSS overhaul for 5.6 (including Atom compatibility)? There are all sorts of bugs (see my other posts).

Probably not before OmniWeb 6 unfortunatley.
