    This is a quick & dirty work-around that allows site visitors to create a custom RSS feed based on certain categories from a weblog. There’s a few issues with it (ie Safari) but for the most part it seems to work ok.

    Hi Marty,

    I was just wondering what the issues with Safari are exactly? Seemed to work fine this end.

    Best wishes,

    Hi Mark,

    Working for me now for some reason. Hm.

    What was wrong though?

    Might be something that rears its head again.

    I’m not sure to be perfectly honest. It *was* just displaying raw text instead of launching NetNewsWire - which it does now.

    Ah right.

    Actually mine just showed up using the in-built Safari RSS reader as I was testing at work and don’t have an RSS application here but it worked fine so hopefully was just a small glitch.

    Thanks for the info though.

    Best wishes,

    Mark
