 |
|
Tried to use the new facility in the newly released IE7 only to be told that IE7 does not support sites that use DTDs.
Any comments 
I can, of course, continue to use my current RSS Feeder but it would have been useful to have done away with another superflous program on my bulging PC.

It does work if you highlight the feed and then cut, switch to favourites, feeds then paste. I did it for the camera update feed and works ok.

Ok thanks (did you mean 'copy' or 'cut') will try that.

You are right, it won't work for me now. I did the link by selecting the PGPS update announcement RSS link and pasted it as a short cut into IE by selecting favourites then feeds paste shortcut but that was done using the original beta1 release of IE. Also in that release it did not give the error message that IE 7 does not support sites that use DTD's.
They have obviously change things in the final release, but the feeds do work with other RSS sites such as TomTom, and various other sites I use that display RSS feeds. Looks like we will have to wait and see if Mike can do anything about it.

Yes, I did it in a similar fashion but it will not allow me to do that

Yes, I've successfully included a number of other feeds/sites into the IE7 so if Mike can fix the PGPSW RSS feeds that would be great. Thanks Graham

I'm not quite sure how I did it, but I seem to have added the feed to my IE7 somehow.
I selected this url here from my existing reader then put it in the address bar at top of screen. When I clicked on 'Enter' a screen opened asking me if I wanted to select that link into the IE7 feed list....
Trouble is I cannot repeat it
