Hi, maybe I'm been an idiot. But I'm trying to link to this rss feed, http://www.mopoke.co.uk/weather/detailed/2679.xml I have tried doing form both the browser and the RSS reader. But when I try I just get that it's not supported? Why? Any one got any ideas? Or know of a good weather rss feed I can use instead.

Thanks

edit: although that does work fine on the M600

Esato feed works fine on my K800. Have it on my feeds now and although it's a very good site. It's not going to help me know what the weather is going to be like... Unless, Esato is thinking of adding this feature? Masseur, could you bring that up at your next esato meeting?

Edit spellings.

Info - http://www.channel4.com/news/weather/rss.jsp?type=uk&city=London

RSS Feed - http://www.channel4.com/news/weather/uk_city_rss.jsp?city=London

They dont do milton keynes but london is close enough.

Let me know how it goes cos my battery has just died on me.

edit - for everyone else who wants this on the left hand side toolbar there is a button to browse more cities, this service is available in cities worldwide. so now you can see the weather on your phone instead of looking out the window

Although I beg to differ with you about London, been close enough. It's 30-45 mins on the train.. I tried the channel4 feed(but to bedford, a little closer) but still getting the same, not supported. I'm begining to think that the reader on the 800 is rubish.

I will forgive about your geographical error. But try harded next time

I don't think it's his site as it works on my PC, also I couldn't get the Channel 4 feed to work either. So it's either me, doing something wrong or the K800 doesn't support that many RSS feed types? if there are differant feed types? not sure how it works.

But thanks for your help.

RSS = Really Simple Syndication

Really Simple??? Is that utter boll**ks or what?

I cant see there being different feed types becuase its just basic HTML.

Thats pretty much what I thought a RSS is a RSS can't really be any differancies. But so far the only one's I've used on the phone are the BBC news(which was pre installed) and esato. Both of which work. Just can't get a weather one working. I'll just have to do it the old fashioned way and go direct to the BBC weather site, it's just that's going to cost more in GPRS/3g charges.

I'm now waiting for RRSS, might be able to use that.
