I have formapi content type feed creating items content type feeditem. I have a problem with this feed, in that every time it refreshes (btw, I almost always have to refresh by hand as the cron is updating), but when I refresh. All the items come in with my system date, instead of the dates on the items of the feed. I have set it with the intention of having the date read from the feed, and I have about 6 other feeds currently in the system that seem to update and take the proper date.

The feed in question is;

The item date line looks like this;
2009-12-10T19:26:41+00:00

I noticed a reuter's feed that updates fine looks like this;

I am wondering if the feed reader works with some feeds and not others, or if I am doing something stupid.

Before I start loading dozens or hundreds of feeds into my system, i want to know that I am doing things right.

Any info that could direct me to something I am doing wrong, or saying that it is the feed that just is not going to work would be helpful.

Cheers! Ricco

I tried to visit the feed, but i've got "permission denied"
Which parser do you use? Give the another parser a try!

"I am wondering if the feed reader works with some feeds and not others" - this is really possible! I'd bet that feed is not valid according to the specification, usually Parser Simplepie is better choice for not valid feeds.
