(Sorry, more techie stuff...) I'd guess what's probably happening is the
content-type of the page that's showing the feed is different from what
Blogger is sending out through the feed, which is what normally catches
me out.
To try to get a bit clearer & move towards a fix: what language are you
using to try to show the feed? (e.g. PHP, ASP, Javascript?)
If you've managed to show it a bit, where did you copy the code from?
(i.e. have you got the address of the page you got it from.)
Is there an example with the problem anywhere we can see?
Thanks
Paul
