ok thanks...
I'll explain that namespace thing as I read the guys on feedvalidator.org explained it to me (us) whoever reads their page hehe
why you should not make up things like <category> etc in RSS feeds
and why they should be in their own namespace
Take for instance a RSS feed some guy is supplying news info with for example. now in his RSS feed he decided to add
<banking>First National Bank</banking>
as you can see this is fine to most, but what about the airport guys that read in rss feeds and have a different definition of banking
and theirs is
<banking>45 degree angle 30% Speed</banking>
As you can see it can get out of scope really fast, and if everyone starts using their own defination of made up tags, RSS is useless.. hence why
they create the namespace thing that goes in the RSS header...
then the feed passes validation and everyone understands what they mean by those extended elements.
