Howdy,
I'm having difficulties getting the feed validator at
https://contact.indymedia.org/feedvalidator/ to accept the following RSS
2.0 feed for the stlimc.org newswire:
http://reboot.stlimc.org/newswire/feed
In particular, the validator fails on the following error:
"The specified attribute value is not a full URL.
If this is a link to a web page, you must include the "http://" at the
beginning.
Otherwise, the valid values for a URL are specified by RFC 3986."
The offending line in the RSS feed is here:
<enclosure
url="http://reboot.stlimc.org/sites/stlimc.org/files/KDHX_Proposal-IMCtraining^07509.doc"
length="37376" type="application/msword" />
I'm a bit confused, since the URL specified does indeed begin with
http://, and it is a valid URL (can copy & paste into browser just fine).
This RSS feed is generated by the Drupal CMS currently running
reboot.stlimc.org, no customization, and I've its built-in RSS feed
function fine in other venues.
