Topic: Extern.php
Not sure if it's been mentioned already, but you have this in extern.php:
echo "\t\t\t".'<author>dummy@email.com ('.htmlspecialchars($feed['items'][$i]['author']).')</author>'."\r\n";Last edited by MattF (2008-02-05 06:52:24)

According to the RSS 2.0 standard, the author field should include an e-mail address. However, we don't want to display the user's actual e-mail address. Hence, the dummy address. Not sure if it's the behaviour you're referring to of if it's just the fact that it should be example.com.
Wouldn't it be better to check the users table for the email revealing option?

No because the option in the user table sets whether the e-mail is revealed to other registered users, not to everyone (as in guests reading the feed).
Either or both.
It obviously should be example.com if it's to remain. It seems more appropriate to just drop the element rather than provide it and use a dummy address, however, even if the real name is legit.
Just on a side note, isn't the <atom:link field also required in RSS headers now to make it technically valid? Last time I used the RSS validator it was classed as a required element.
I see. Fair enough ![]()

There is such a thing? Since when? Where?

Oh please. The "RSS 2.0 Specification" then. Better?
