Yes, not all RSS feeds are well-formed XML. These feeds aren't
correct, but if you want to be able to parse them you can't use
NSXMLParser (since a real XML parser won't parse a non-well-formed
feed).
So what's the purpose of NSXMLParser then?
Given that, why are you writing your own RSS parser at all? Brent
Simmons has posted open-source code to an RSS parser using
CoreFoundation routines. You can find it at
<http://ranchero.com/cocoa/rss/>. Note that I haven't looked at it,
I'm just assuming it's decent since he's the author of NetNewsWire
(and NetNewsWire 2 rocks)
I can't say why, but I checked out the code from Brent. I'm using that
instead of NSXMLParser, although it doesn't support the Atom protocol,
but I don't think that's used so much.
Thanks
