This is the URI of an RSS 2.0 feed with enclosures:
http://webjay.org/podcast/xml/shewolf/olppopsongs
According to feedvalidator.org it is valid in every regard, as
beautifully formed a feed as has yet emerged from the foam. To give
just one example of its pristine condition, it does not redirect to
feed://webjay.org/podcast/xml/shewolf/olppopsongs, nor does it make
any reference to such a bogus URI scheme.
When opened from Safari (but not IE/Win or Firefox on any platform),
the following error happens:
'Safari can't open the page
"feed://webjay.org/podcast/xml/shewolf/olppopsongs". The error was:
"unknown error" (NSURLErrorDomain:-1)'
My wild guess as to what's happening here is that Safari is making
some assumption that the client should be the iTunes client and the
server *is* the iTunes store, but that's just a guess.
The impact of this bug is that Safari users are unable to subscribe to
podcasts from third party providers, so it's not a small problem.
