had a customer call me today that is using BP Blog 9.0 citing that the RSS feed is not working in IE8 - he is getting the error:
" This feed contains code errors. "

Anyone else seen this?

It might be good to post the URL of the rss, to see exactly the error. Also, please specify the language of the blog, since some languages might use "special" characters that might be considered errors in the rss file.

Just found the issue - your note about special characters got me thinking so I searched thru the XML file and found a special "…" in the code (which is the equivalent to "...").  Changed it out for the 3 dots and the feed loads up now!

Thanks - yes, go to your rss.asp file around line 148 and add this line:

Code:
strOutput = replace(strOutput,"…","...")
