rss uses xml which only resembles html in appearance but its not bound by the rigid syntax built into html.
Indeed xml tags are totally user defined (we create a schema here to define their syntax for our trading purposes) and generally (well the only place I have seen xml used) it is used for exchanging data
rss simply uses xml where the tags are predefined by the rss standard

another one, this one looks pretty good but when you click on what the feed should look like it brings up a blang page for me.

@Minstral, That rssweather works. I have linked it to Cranfield airport which is as close to Milton Keynes as I'm going to get. Might Email the BBC, tell them I pay my licence fee and there fore they should start a weather rss feed. See what happens. Thanks for all your help.
@Masseur, I don't (on my O2 branded) have a rss option in the internet browser. The reader seems to be seperate app. and teh only link I can find for it is in my shortcuts, in the pop up links thingy(can't remember what you call it, the little button between the C and menu button.)
Edit: Activity menu

Well on my Voda branded K800, the RSS reader app is in Messaging, and also when you browse to a page that has an RSS feed on it, an icon comes up in the corner and it lists the feeds found on the page, you can then add them to your reader...
Works like a charm on the ones I've tried so far, its RSS v2 compliant I believe so everything that sticks to the RSS spec should work, if the XML isn't formatted properly it might not work but thats not the readers fault.
Haven't tried it with an ATOM feed yet so I don't know if they work

While we are talking about RSS. Esato has two feeds. One for your web browser
http://www.esato.com/rss and one for your K800 mobile phone
http://mobile.esato.com/rss
In the first one, clickable links takes you to this (www.esato.com/board) version of the forum, while the links in the second feed will take you to the mobile (HTML light) version of the forum.

Does anyone know if or how you can rename a feed within the rss reader?
On the K800 I have added a few new feed but it only shows first part of the title and if they are from the the same site then cant quickly choose which feed you want to update.
for example
http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/rss/
has loads of feeds available but if you download more than one feed you cant tell which is which on the reader.
I want to rename the feed on my phone so it comes up with:
News
Sport
Weather
etc, something thats easier to read and to the point.
Anyone help or with it being merely a reader you cant edit the information as sent?
