Having a few problems with this URL of a feed from my site

http://www.french-property-sale.eu/external.html

Is it displaying the RSS feed from my site for you? Some customers say they can see the page and some cannot. In particular (perhaps coincdence), those using the latest version of MS explorer with vista appear to have problems. The page for them just hangs and does not show. It reports back that there are code errors. On Mac OSX (different browsers) and older PCs it seems fine. If one or two people could let me know I would be grateful.

You might wrap the title and description in cdata tags, this might be the issue.

PHP Code:


			
echo '<title><![CDATA[' . $title . ']]></title>';

Removing all standard descriptive text after the final </rss> seems to have done the trick. For some reason it was not parsing correctly.
