RSS XML Generation Problem

Rails
#1

I’m getting an interesting problem. I’d trying to generate an RSS
document
and then real it from outside of my app. Here’s what the view looks
like.

xml.instruct! :xml, :version=>“1.0”
xml.rss(:version=>“2.0”){
xml.channel{
xml.title(“mytitle”)
xml.link(“http://www.myapp.com”)
xml.description(“mydescription”)
xml.language(‘en-us’)
for post in @posts
xml.item do
@author = “”#{post.title}" by, #{post.author_name}"
@influence = “Disclosure: #{post.disclosure} [Influence Level:
#{post.influence_level}]”
xml.title(@author)
xml.category(post.influence_level)
xml.description(@influence)
xml.pubDate(post.created_at.rfc2822)
xml.link(post.permalink)
xml.guid(post.permalink)
end
end
}

Here’s the controller.

def rss
@post_pages, @posts = paginate :posts, :per_page => 10, :order =>
‘id
DESC’
render :layout => false
end

When I display the file at /mycontroller/rss I get what appears to be
the
xml

    This XML file does not appear to have any style information

associated with it. The document tree is shown below.

[Influence Level: 1] Tue, 18 Jul 2006 11:17:43 -0700 http://www.google.com http://www.google.com

But when I try to read it from feedburner it won’t find it, and infact
it
finds this.
