RSSBean Troubleshooting ReportLooks Good, doesn't work well for me - Version: 1.11, 5/17/2005 09:23AM PST

It loaded my feed OK, and started scrolling the topics, great.

Clicked on a topic, Dashboard went away and nothing happened. Is it supposed to display the full news in a browser?

RSSBean Developer NoteRSSBean issues - Version: 1.1, 5/2/2005 05:41AM PST

I am working on the issues. Before the new version, please check out this item:
< http://horneddragon.com/content/rssbean_v11_a_new_/ >

If the URL of the feed begins with “feed://”, try “http://” instead. For example, use http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_topstories.rss instead of feed://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_topstories.rss.

To BeegeBug: A logout and login may solve the problem. Or you can just double click the widget to launch it in Dashboard?

Also, thanks for not throwing me a one star review, and thanks for the understanding.

RSS Bean only seems to work with certain feeds that have .rss as their extension. No .php or .xml I have tried has worked either
