Description
I get the "no element found at line 1" error. I see this is common in searching the internet. Here are two code snippets of XML; one works and one does not work. I think, but only guestimating, that the problem is simply the blank line between elements. I've read the parsing may be according to standard, however nearly every browser with RSS read capability successfully reads the 'DOES NOT WORK' code below... If this could be written to accomodate blank line rudeness, it would benefit many people who would like to use Drupal. Thanks.
WORKS:
