I've created a couple of feeds for a plugin.
The links are properly written in the RSS file, but when I display the feed in a portal block, any links with more than one argument (indicated by & ) then whatever is resposible for writing the link to the block cuts out all of the link except the last argument, which leaves an invalid and useless link.

Any ideas what is happening?
This is on the 1.3.12cvs. Here is the RSS file for reference:

it is also interesting to note that the individual item's pubdates are dated circa 1969.

According to feedvalidator your feed is invalid. Is this feed generated by geeklog as well as syndicated in by geeklog?

Cheers,

Mike

Presuming the RSS you posted was valid but broken by the forums...

I have now fixed the issue, which was an error with GUID permalink handling in the RSS 2.0 feed class. Just checked in now.
