So, you still don't know how to use the three sea shells?  Heh.

Oh my goodness, I had forgotten all about that movie! Sandra Bullock was cute, eh? Seriously though, those fixtures look like they might have come from some sort of Russian space station or something.

Hi,

Isn't feedvalidator ([link]) a bit fuzzy as it complains:

column 49: managingEditor must include an email address

when my feed includes

<managingEditor>endian00@endian.net?subject=RSS</managingEditor>

Is subject not allowed according to rss-specs?

No.

Isn't Mombo a bit fuzzy as it double-escapes carefully escaped ampersands in URLS? Oh, okay, I should have looked at the forced preview.

No, redux.

Phil, I've made the fix.  There certainly was nothing visually apparent in a preview that a carefully escaped hypertext link was mangled in the process.

Of course, if you ever encounter a hypertext link with the characters &amp; in it (which, after all is legal in a URL), you will have to carefully escape it as &amp;amp;amp;.  Preview would definitely be recommended in such a case.

Testing: No. No. No. No.

Thanks for your replies (if "No" was meant as a reply to my question).
However, when trying to access the link I only get a "forum not found" error, even though I'm logged in, which doesn't help me that much.

OUCH.  The feedvalidator mailing list existing this morning, but now it seems to be gone!

What Phil had said in that original post to the mailing list was:

Sorry, no. The ?subject=foo part is a part of the mailto: URI scheme, not a part of the email address scheme. Author calls for an email address, not a mailto URI, so you can only use things that are valid addresses (putting the contents of the author element into a mailto: URI in an HTML link is only one of the things that might be done with them: a program might also automatically send email to the address without passing through an HTML page at all).

Looks like the mailing list has returned.
