Hi,
I would like to serve RSS feeds from a python CGI script. Basically I
managed to generate the feeds file using PyRSS2Gen
(http://www.dalkescientific.com/Python/PyRSS2Gen.html). I construct
the whole rss feed as a string with the proper application header set
as ""application/rss+xml" and write the string as follows in my CGI
script:
<snip>
rss.write_xml(sys.stdout)
</snip>
When I try to aggregate this feed I get the error "Invalid rss url" in
thunderbird. Should the feed be written to a file with extension
'.rss' and then the URL be given to a feed reader?
