hello I am trying to pull in this feed, feed://news.google.com/news?hl=en&client=safari&rls=en&q=product+recalls&um=1&ie=UTF-8&output=rss, but I am getting an error and the feed is not displaying

Here’s a screenshot…I have highlighted in red the problem spots..

Here’s the code I am using:
```
{exp:magpie url="html://news.google.com/news?hl=en&client=safari&rls=en&q=product+recalls&um=1&ie=UTF-8&output=rss" limit="10" refresh="720"}
<ul>
{items}
<li><a href="http://{link}">{title}</a></li>
{/items}
</ul>
{/exp:magpie}
```
I have tried a yahoo feed also with the same results,
feed://news.search.yahoo.com/rss?ei=UTF-8&p=consumer+product+recalls

Kevin,

Change you rprotocol from html:// to http:// and it will work for you

{exp:magpie url="html://news.google.com/news?hl=en&client=safari&rls=en&q=product+recalls&um=1&ie=UTF-8&output=rss" limit="10" refresh="720"}

to this

{exp:magpie url="http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&client=safari&rls=en&q=product+recalls&um=1&ie=UTF-8&output=rss" limit="10" refresh="720"}
