#36680 [NEW]: PHP.net RSS Feed Does Not Validate

From: niraj6 at yahoo dot com Operating system: Irrelevant PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Website problem Bug description: PHP.net RSS Feed Does Not Validate Description: ------------ As can be seen at: http://feedvalidator.org/check?url=http://www.php.net/news.rss The php.net RSS generator generates invalid RSS feeds. This renders the feeds unreadable in many RSS clients. I have tried it with RSS Bandit (rssbandit.sf.net) on which it is completely unreadable. Previous bug reports have been made dating back to 2004 which have been closed in 2004, stating the code has been fixed in CVS. It has been 2 years, but the fix does not seem to have propagated yet. Is that a fix for another issue or has the bug reappeared? Reproduce code: --------------- Simply go to http://feedvalidator.org/check?url=http://www.php.net/news.rss and scroll down to see the source code. Expected result: ---------------- The RSS should validate. Actual result: -------------- The RSS does not validate due to several errors. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=36680&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36680&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36680&r=trysnapshot51 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36680&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36680&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36680&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36680&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36680&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36680&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36680&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36680&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36680&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36680&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36680&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36680&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36680&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36680&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36680&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36680&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36680&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36680&r=mysqlcfg
