This is a single post from deeden.co.uk made during the period May 2002 to April 2009. During a previous grand redesign I decided to make a break with the past and consign the old entries to history. This entry is from March 2003 and lives here forevermore.

RSS Validator Favelet

Inspired by the Accessibility checking favelets and Tantek’s favelets here’s a favelet to validate your RSS feed.

It’s a simple variation on Tantek’s other validator favelet. It’s only been tested in Camino 0.7. It’s already helped me discover an encoding error in one of my feeds.

The instructions for use are simple.

  1. Drag the favelet to your toolbar.
  2. Go to a page with a <link> to an rss file.
  3. Choose the favelet.
  4. Marvel as the results appear in your browser.
