Well, what did you expect?
That file is in XML format (actually a specialised version called RDF/RSS). It is not meant to be displayed in the browser but to be read by an application. Geeklog can read RDF files and display them in a block - that's what the portal blocks are for.
bye, Dirk

Thanks, Dirk, for the response. I will experimnet on this.
My problems is that I stayed with MS FP too long and I feel I am in strange universe noweadays.
I do not have the basic concepts of this type of function.
How do I set up newsfeeds on my geeglog?

Hi Guys,
Can I extend this thread slightly?
I am new to Geeklog and worse than that I have installed it on Windows.
I used Winzip to unpack the tar file. This refuses to unpack the geeklog.rdf file which is 0 bytes in size.
My config.php file has the default settings
$_CONF['rdf_file'] = $_CONF['path_html'] . 'backend/geeklog.rdf';
$_CONF['backend'] = 1;
I have created a directory called backend and even created an empty text file called geeklog.rdf.
The rdf file is only a text file so it will always start with no data.
There is a process in the lib-common.php which writes to this text file updating the articles.
This process is called every time a user clicks on the index.php page.
I noticed some article talking about security privileges so I gave everyone read and write access to the rdf file.
I then refreshed the index.php page in my browser which intern updated the text file.
Hope this helps.
