Cheers for that. This thing about feeds not working is a huge
disappointment, especially after I ditched the readers which needed net
framework. I'd be interested to know why the feed from the Independent
newspaper is 'faulty' according to the accessible feedreader...cheers

Sunil,
I have experienced a similar problem with other feeds and that was one
reason why I 
was looking for an alternative - until the Net Framework 1.1 issue arose. 

I have just looked at

http://www.webbie.org.uk/accessiblerss/index.htm

and read the following -
"You are likely to find that some feeds don't work.  This may be because the
feed is not 
valid.  You can check the feeds validity at The Feed Validator Service
(link)." 
I don't know quite how to interpret that.  

I suggest that you report any feeds that don't work with Accessible RSS but
do work on 
other aggregators.  Feedback is welcomed but I have to admit that reports of
bugs and 
suggestions for improvement seem to  wait some time before they are taken
into 
account.
