Ever since I
started using Firefox 2, my Live Bookmark for Ralford.net has been giving me an ugly "Live Bookmark feed failed to load" error.
I went to the address of the feed in Firefox, only to find that I was prompted to add the feed as a Live Bookmark (my previous install of Firefox let me view the XML source). So I dusted off my Internet Explorer icon, and loaded the feed from there. It did some debugging for me, and pointed out I'm not allowed to use HTML's non-breaking spaces in a weblog entry. I removed the space, but found that the feed still threw an error.
Next I went to
FeedValidator.org, and found that my feed was valid, but a
guid tag was recommended as a sub-element for the item tag. I converted my link tags to guid tags, and now
my feed is happily loading as a Live Bookmark in Firefox 2.
