DescentBB

When opening links from the DBB's RSS feeds, they don't actually work because a backslash is inserted after the domain name - which of course breaks it.

Just in case, I've only tried with individual subboards so far, not the entire DBB, and this is using the Live Bookmarks feature in Firefox 1.5 (but it works for most sites; I have my doubts this problem would be FF-specific).

lol i was just about to post this!!!

does this in general... google home page / firefox etc etc...

Thanks all I will look into this one, frustrating indeed!

Are we going to get the RSS fixed as Sirius reported that it needed to be?
C'mon Get it done!!

Tech forum RSS works for me.

Hi I run Firefox 1.5 and an extension called Fizzle that shows all bookmarked live feeds.

I have the D2X live bookmark and that part of it works fine and the new items come up. Where the problem is is in the \"read more\" links that has the additional slash in it. If the problem is here, c'mon it's only a 2 min fix to take the slash out surely or is that per forum or topic?

Anyway PLEASE SOMEONE FIX IT!!!

Interesting indeed, now with this information maybe I can locate the problem this weekend, kids are going to Grandmas

Thanks Weyrman

Did the rss feed get fixed? Do I need to copy in new live bookmarks or what?

Hey I just tried the RSS feed and it is STILL BROKEN!

Is anyone going to fix it? It just seems that there is an extra slash added that should not be. Shouldn't be that hard to fix guys.

Shouldn't be that slash is there from the code it's an issue with the way windows handles the path and I'll be damned if I can figure out a solution.

Oh, well then it is the same in Linux as well.

heh. it just seems to be the wrong kind of slash.

You know, this back slash is sometimes put there by php, kind of like an escape character I think. Would this help?

man I think it has something to do with the DBB residing on a winblows server.

I've racked my brain over just this issue, haven't worked on it in a few weeks now maybe I can look into it again and the problem will pop out at me.
