Catherine, For reasons which I do not understand, Accessible RSS seems to have
problems
with certain feeds. Even pasting the URL into the Add Feed dialogue sometimes
produces
a message implying incorrectly that the feed is not valid. Also when it
searches web pages
it may fail to recognise the presence of some items. I suspect that the
program has not
kept pace with the rapid development of RSS feed technology. hopefully Webbie
4,
containing the Accessible programs within the one installer, will have an
improved version
of Accessible RSS.
Incidentally the Accessible RSs page of the webbie site says that some feeds
may not work
with it and gives a link to a Feed Validator.
Sorry I canot be more helpful,
Douglas
